[theora] can't demux with ogminfo / need to re-pac OGV to MKV

[Jiří Navrátil]

Hello Gregory,

Thank you for you reply.

oggz-rip is demuxing fine

mkvmerge can't merge demuxed files, I will file a bug report

command
ffmpeg -i input.ogv  -acodec copy -vcodec copy output.mkv
is working fine, so I have the solution. thank you!

Best regards,
Jiri
