After video tag supported in Firefox 3.5, we would like my AVI video to convert to open standard video format, OGG. How? Currently, we believe the easiest way would be through VLC. The screenshots that shown below are using VLCversion 1.0. The steps on converting AVI to OGG are as below:

1. On the main window, click “Media > Convert / Save” menu item to open “Open Media” dialog.
2. Click “Add...” to select avi files that are needed to convert to ogg format.
3. Click “Convert / Save” button to open “Convert” dialog.
4. On the “Convert” dialog, click “Browse” button to open “Save file...” dialog.
5. After the path is selected and the file name is written, click “Save” button.
6. Select “Video - Theora + Vorbis (OGG)” for the profile settings.
7. Click “Start” button in “Convert” dialog to start the converting process.

After we have one OGG file, for example “video.ogg“, we test it out with the html code below in Firefox3.5.

	<source src="video.ogg" type="video/ogg" /><!-- Firefox 3.5 will play this -->
