[Vorbis] Vorbis in DivX

[Paul Ellis]

I'm not sure about in an Ogg container right now.  I know you _should_
be able to do it in the future.  You can do vorbis and divx together in
a .ogm file however.  You can process the divx avi however you want.
Take the source file (wav/ac3) and convert it using BeSweet (if you
still want surround sound), oggenc, or oggdropxpd (if it isn't ac3).
Then you can then mux the vorbis audio file and the divx avi (it just
takes the video stream from an avi) using OggMux
(http://oggmux.sourceforge.net/index.html) and Tobias' Directshow
Filters (http://tobias.everwicked.com/).

I have used vorbis in the this manner.  I like it because Q -1 provides
fine sound quality for most video/movie material and at a much lower
bitrate than mp3 for that matter.  Ogm will also do keyframe seeking
which is much faster (although less accurate, but it usually doesn't
matter) than normal seeking.  Be advised though that this is not a
popular topic here.  I have gotten the impression that ogm is kind of a
bastard container since eventually everything (audio or video) should be
in a .ogg container.  I think www.doom9.net has some tutorials on this
actually.
