Ooops, I'm blind..

===========================
==> Found audio stream: 1
Ogg : stream 1 is vorbis
==> Found audio stream: 2
Ogg : stream 2 is vorbis
Ogg stream 3 is text
Ogg stream length (granulepos): 1438
Ogg demuxer : found 2 audio streams, 1 video stream and 1 text stream

Nevertheless this could be unified a bit, the output looks quite different
from what Matroska prints.  Also for OGM you need verbose mode, Matroska
prints it without -v.  Matroska also prints language info, but I suspect
that OGM does not carry that information, does it?
