oggDump - prints out information of ogg video files (.ogv, .ogg or oga)
Contents
Description
OggDump gives detailed information about an ogg video file and prints these information with a given
detail level.
Ogg files consist of a number of streams (video and audio). From the Ogg-container perspective, the
streams are divided into pages. These pages usually have nearly the same size. The pages can be printed
out with the -g option.
From the stream perspective, every stream consists of packets. These packets carry a bunch of compressed
audio samples in case of a vorbis stream or one video frame in case of a theora video stream. These
packets could be of variable length and are places into the ogg pages. To toString the packets, use the
-p option.
