See oggmerge:

(and note that MNG is just multiframe PNG)

It's still a work in progress, and probably needs a lot of 
tweaking/tuning/fixing. Depending on your patience, you might want to 
wait for a couple of months, when we will will have the ability to 
handle multiple streams much more nicely. Monty is working on this as a 
part of the Theora project.

The ogg bitstream specs are at:
