Projects/Formats

In an effort to bring open-source ideals to the world of multimedia the Xiph.org Foundation develops a multitude of amazing products.

Container Formats

  • Ogg: Media container. This is our native format and the recommeded container for Xiph codecs.
  • Ogg Skeleton: Skeleton information on all logical content bitstreams in Ogg.
  • SpeexRTP: RTP payload format for voice
  • VorbisRTP: RTP payload format for general audio
  • TheoraRTP: RTP payload format for video
  • XSPF: XML playlist format

Codecs

  • Compressed Codecs:
  • Uncompressed Codecs:
    • Audio:
      • OggPCM: Uncompressed PCM audio, primarily as an interchange codec
      • OggPCM2: An Alternative Uncompressed PCM audio, under active development
      • Humorous PCM format: Uncompressed PCM audio - and a lot more!
    • Video:
      • OggRGB: Uncompressed RGB video, primarily as an interchange codec, under active development
      • OggYUV: Uncompressed YUV video, primarily as an interchange codec, under active development
