Pro Tips
1

OGG has limited support on Apple devices. Use MP3 if iOS or macOS compatibility is needed.

2

Only the first (default) audio track is extracted from the MKV.

3

For editing, extract to WAV first before encoding to OGG.

4

Large MKV files take more time to process in the browser.

5

OGG is particularly well suited to background music in games due to its patent-free licensing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is OGG supported by all browsers?

OGG Vorbis is supported in Firefox, Chrome, and Edge. Safari has limited OGG support. For universal browser compatibility, provide an MP3 or AAC fallback.

Does extracting MKV audio to OGG lose quality?

If the MKV audio is already lossy (AAC, MP3, AC3), re-encoding to OGG applies a second round of compression. If the MKV audio is lossless, only one round of lossy encoding occurs.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. FFmpeg runs in your browser via WebAssembly. Files are processed locally.

Why does the first conversion take longer?

The first conversion loads the FFmpeg WebAssembly binary. This takes a few seconds. Subsequent conversions are immediate.

Can I use the OGG file in a Godot game?

Yes. Godot supports OGG Vorbis natively for music streams and sound effects. Import the OGG file directly into your project.
