  • Support for OGG Theora/Vorbis in AE?

    Posted by John Isaacks on May 10, 2010 at 5:46 pm

    Ogg is the video format that will be used for HTML5 video in Firefox, Opera, and Chrome.

    It uses the Vorbis audio codec and Theora video codec. with the .ogg file extension.

    I am currently using After Effects CS4 but plan to upgrade to CS5 later this year.

    Is there a way to make after effects support this video format?

    Thanks!

    The problem with these large inter-frame compressed CODECs is that they are synchronous – ie. they encode and decode in the same manner. And their premise has been primarily for encoding, to retain a smallish filesize, accomplished through large inter-frame GOPs.

    The trick is to have a large GOP-capable CODEC; BUT then decodes using small or non-existent GOPs – an asynchronous CODEC. With real-time algorithms widely available, this isn’t so far fetched a paridigm. Coupled with hardware assists, this is what the industry and HTML5 needs (just to ensure that my mini rant fits into the thread-scope)

    Sense make?
