Convert MOV to OGG
Short answer
Drop your MOV file into the converter below and download the OGG file. It runs in your browser with FFmpeg, for files up to 100 MB; nothing is uploaded. Only the sound is kept: the video track is dropped and the audio is saved as Vorbis audio in Ogg, audio only.
Maximum file size: 100 MB. The first conversion loads a ~30 MB converter engine, once per visit. Nothing is uploaded - conversion runs on your device.
Extract audio from MOV into OGG. · Extract audio · Browser-side via FFmpeg WASM - nothing uploaded.
Key takeaways
- The 8.88 MB MOV file became a 119 KB OGG file (-98.7%), about 95 kbps for the 10 second clip.
- The result holds: Audio: vorbis 48000 Hz 2 ch.
- In your browser the same conversion of a 3 second clip took 0.17 seconds on the single-thread engine; natively, the 10 second clip took 0.24 seconds.
- Next to it: MOV to AAC (-98.2%), MOV to AVI (-70.6%), MOV to FLAC (-81.7%).
Measured: MOV to OGG
The converter's own ffmpeg arguments, run on a 10 second 1920 × 1080 excerpt of Big Buck Bunny (an animated film, not camera footage) saved in MOV. The browser column is the same arguments on the single-thread WebAssembly core with a 3 second excerpt, in a headless run; your device will differ. Results describe this clip and these encoders.
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| Mode | Audio re-encoded |
| Input | MOV, 8.88 MB |
| Output | OGG, 119 KB (-98.7%) |
| Output streams | Audio: vorbis 48000 Hz 2 ch |
| Time, native, 10 s clip | 0.24 s |
| Time, browser engine, 3 s clip | 0.17 s |
A re-encode decodes and encodes every frame or sample, so the time grows with the length of the file.
MOV vs OGG
| MOV | OGG | |
|---|---|---|
| Full name | QuickTime File Format (Apple) | Ogg (Xiph.Org) |
| What is inside | H.264, HEVC or ProRes video with AAC or PCM audio | Vorbis audio, sometimes Opus or FLAC |
| Compression | Depends on the codec inside | Lossy |
| Best for | iPhone recordings and Final Cut Pro projects | Open-source software and games |
What you get
Vorbis audio in Ogg, audio only. Extract audio from MOV into OGG.
Planning a bigger file
These are estimates scaled up from the 10 second clip. Real files differ with content, resolution and bitrate, so treat them as an order of magnitude, not a promise.
| Length of the video or recording | Input size (like ours) | OGG size | Time in your browser |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 minute | 53.26 MB | 715 KB | 3 seconds |
| 10 minutes | 532.62 MB | 7.15 MB | 33 seconds |
| 1 hour | 3195.75 MB | 42.90 MB | 3.3 minutes |
An MOV file of this kind reaches the 100 MB limit of the converter after about 2.0 minutes; converting it would take roughly 7 seconds on the single-thread engine, and the OGG would be about 1.41 MB.

Choosing OGG
OGG: Ogg (Xiph.Org). Open-source software and games. MOV: QuickTime File Format (Apple). iPhone recordings and Final Cut Pro projects.
- Keep your original: a re-encode is a copy of a copy.
- If the destination states the format it accepts, use that and nothing else.
