[http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4281.txt Typically], MIME types of media encapsulation formats use the optional "codecs" parameter to specify which codecs are being used in a particular file.


[[MIME_Types_and_File_Extensions|Other MIME types]] are still in the process.
Codecs encapsulated in Ogg require a text identifier at the beginning of the first header page to identify the encapsulated codecs.

Specification of MIME types and respective codecs parameter

Also includes a specification of the recommended file extensions to use with Ogg.

MIME Types

The following MIME types are now officially registered with IANA and specified with the IETF as RFC 5334:

MIME Type Use Skeleton
logical stream? 		File
Extension(s) 		Macintosh File
Type Code
video/ogg video (possibly with audio)

encapsulated in Ogg

recommended .ogv OggV
audio/ogg audio
encapsulated in Ogg 		recommended .oga

.ogg (Vorbis I)
.opus (Opus)
.spx (Speex)

OggA
application/ogg complex/multitrack/multiplexed files

encapsulated in Ogg

required .ogx OggX

Other MIME types are still in the registration process.

Codecs Parameter

Typically, MIME types of media encapsulation formats use the optional "codecs" parameter to specify which codecs are being used in a particular file.

Codecs encapsulated in Ogg require a text identifier at the beginning of the first header page to identify the encapsulated codecs.

The following table contains the identifiers for existing Xiph codecs and the codec parameter names used for */ogg MIME types (in alphabetical order):
