OGV and WebM represent two generations of open-source web video. OGV uses Theora video from 2001, while WebM uses VP8 (2010), VP9 (2013), or AV1 (2018) — each a major leap in compression efficiency. Both are Xiph.org-associated (Vorbis/Opus audio), and both target browser-native web video playback. WebM is OGV's modern successor, endorsed by Google and supported by Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Opera.
Theora is obsolete — VP9 delivers 40-60% better compression and AV1 delivers 70%+ better compression at the same visual quality. Converting OGV to WebM modernizes open-source video content with dramatically improved quality-per-bitrate while maintaining the royalty-free, open-source philosophy.
WebM is YouTube's delivery format and is universally supported in modern browsers. OGV support, while still present in Firefox and Chrome, may be deprecated in future browser versions.
FFmpeg decodes OGV's Theora video and Vorbis audio, then encodes to VP9 using libvpx-vp9 with Opus audio using libopus in the WebM container. VP9 uses CRF mode (31-36) or two-pass bitrate targeting. AV1 encoding via libaom-av1 or SVT-AV1 is available for maximum compression but is significantly slower. Opus replaces Vorbis for superior audio efficiency. The WebM container is a subset of Matroska (MKV).
VP9 at CRF 31 dramatically outperforms Theora — expect files 40-60% smaller at the same visual quality, or significantly better quality at the same file size. AV1 offers even more dramatic improvements. Opus audio at 128 kbps is perceptually transparent and superior to Vorbis at any bitrate.
