The codec to encode the audio track. Codec "Without reencoding" copies the audio stream from the input file into output without re-encoding if possible.
Set the number of audio channels. This setting is most useful when downmixing channels (e.g., from 5.1 to stereo).
Set the sample rate of the audio. Music with a full spectrum (20 Hz — 20 kHz) requires values not lower than 44.1 kHz to achieve transparency. More info can be found on the wiki.

OGV (Ogg Video) is an open multimedia format that combines the Theora video codec with the Ogg container, both developed by the Xiph.Org Foundation as royalty-free alternatives to proprietary media formats. Theora 1.0 reached stable release in November 2008, though development had been underway since 2002 based on the VP3 codec donated by On2 Technologies. Theora compresses video using block-based motion compensation with discrete cosine transform coding, achieving quality roughly comparable to MPEG-4 Part 2 at similar bit rates. The Ogg container uses a page-based multiplexing scheme that interleaves Theora video with Vorbis or Opus audio, supporting features like chained streams for seamless concatenation and multiplexed streams for synchronized multimedia playback. OGV was historically significant in the push for open web standards, serving as one of the first freely implementable video formats proposed for the HTML5 video element. Firefox and Chrome both shipped native OGV support, demonstrating that web video could function without reliance on proprietary plugins or licensed codecs. The format also supports FLAC lossless audio, Kate subtitle streams, and Skeleton metadata within the Ogg container. While WebM and AV1 have largely replaced OGV in the open-source video landscape, the format remains available in Linux distributions, open-source media tools, and contexts where complete freedom from patent concerns is a priority.

oga

OGA is the audio-only file extension within the Ogg container framework maintained by the Xiph.Org Foundation. While .ogg traditionally served as a catch-all extension for any Ogg-encapsulated stream, the introduction of .oga in 2007 brought clarity by explicitly signaling that a file contains only audio data. Under the hood, OGA files can carry audio encoded with Vorbis, FLAC, Speex, or Opus — the container is codec-agnostic, serving as a transport wrapper with support for chained logical bitstreams and granule-based seeking. One benefit of OGA is interoperability: applications that encounter the .oga extension can optimize for audio-only playback without probing for video tracks, resulting in faster load times and lower memory usage. Because the Ogg container and its associated codecs are entirely open-source and royalty-free, OGA avoids the patent licensing complexities that affect proprietary formats. The format supports Vorbis comment metadata for tagging artist, album, and track information in a standardized way. OGA plays natively in Firefox, Chromium-based browsers, VLC, and most Linux desktop environments, making it a practical choice for web audio distribution and archival workflows.
