Om konvertering från M4V till OGV
M4V is Apple's MPEG-4 video container using H.264 and AAC codecs, while OGV (Ogg Video) is the video variant of the Ogg container format using the Theora video codec and Vorbis audio. OGV was designed as a completely royalty-free video format for the open web, championed by the Xiph.Org Foundation and Mozilla. Converting M4V to OGV produces video files that can be played without any patent-licensed codecs, making them ideal for open-source and web publishing contexts.
Varför konvertera M4V till OGV?
OGV exists to provide a completely patent-free video format for situations where using H.264 (which requires a patent license for certain commercial uses) is not acceptable. While WebM has largely superseded OGV for this purpose, OGV remains relevant for older web projects, Linux distributions that preinstall only free codecs, and educational or government institutions with strict open-source mandates.
