🌸 NAME 🌸

oggSplit — demultiplexes ogv files 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

oggSplit file.ogv

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So here's the vibe: oggSplit demultiplexes a multiplexed ogg file into several files, and each of those lil babies has one stream in it. One. Stream. Each. Periodt. 💅

An ogg video file (you know it, it's got that .ogv extension) usually consists of an audio stream and a video stream, just chillin' together in one file. The command line tool oggSplit disjoins these streams into separate files. This is also often called demultiplexing. No cap, that's the whole thing. 🫶

After that you have all embedded files of this input file with the following naming: 🌈

• theora_<ID>.ogv — This is the video stream encoded with the theora codec. The <ID> is the stream ID that is created by the encoder to uniquely identify this stream. 🎥
• vorbis_<ID>.oga — This is the audio stream encoded with the vorbis codec. The <ID> is the stream ID that is created by the encoder to uniquely identify this stream. 🎧
• unknown_<ID>.ogv — This is an unknown stream, that could not be interpreted. The <ID> is the stream ID that is created by the encoder to uniquely identify this stream. 💀

All files are fully playable with your favoured video or audio player (except the streams, that are uninterpreted). Yes, even the weird ones. Well. Except the weird ones. 😭
