I have many OGM files and I´ve watched some of them with VLC, but they don´t all work with it. When I downloaded my first OGM files, they came with ffdshow etc and worked fine with WMP, but now it doesn´t show them anymore. So how could I get my WMP to play them, or is there some player that would play all the OGM files without a problem? And what program would be the best to convert the format to AVI, for example, and how difficult would it be? I´d really appreciate your help!
from other forums, this was the link given http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Ogg_DirectShow_Filters.htm some codec site that should work for ya.
Problem with VLC is that ogm can use video codecs that it doesn't support. mplayer should be able to playback all ogm's since unlike VLC it can make use of external video codecs. Tobias' filters include a splitter and vorbis decoder. They won't help if you don't happen to have the correct video decoder installed or say the files use aac audio and not vorbis. To playback an ogm file you need; a) a splitter/parser filter. b) video decoder for whatever video stream is contained. c) audio decoder(s) for all audio streams. d) subtitle filter if it has subs.
