Hello,

I think that you're talking about OGG Theora.
If this is the case then I use a simple script to convert a video to an OGG Theora file :

#!/bin/sh
mkfifo -m 0600 stream.yuv stream.wav
mplayer dvd://1 -chapter 1-11 -af volume=15 -ao pcm -aofile stream.wav -vo null -vc dummy -quiet &>audio.log &
mplayer dvd://1 -chapter 1-11 -vo yuv4mpeg -vf crop=xxx:xxx:xx:xx,scale=xxx:xxx -ao null -nosound -quiet &>video.log &
encoder_example -a 3 -v 8 -o DVD.ogg stream.wav stream.yuv

Of course you need libtheora installed and you have to use its encoder_example binary.

Regards
