If I screencast something, than most of the time I do it with recordMyDesktop which produces .ogg-Videos. If you need to convert it so you can show it to your friend or upload it to a video hosting page like youtube or so you have to convert it into another format. I chose avi as format.
Simply fire up this command to convert your file:
mencoder out.ogg -o out.avi -oac mp3lame -ovc lavc
- out.ogg is the .ogg-file you want to convert
- out.avi is the .avi-file you want to create
- mp3lame is the used audio-codec (here mp3)
- lavc is the used video-codec (here libavcodec)
For more information you can look at the MPlayer manual page.

Thanks, for that. Was wondering what lavc meant. Most of the tutorials I’ve found go straight in at the deep end.

mencoder out.ogv -o out.avi -oac mp3lame -ovc lavc -audiofile audio.wav
you an all so do this .. worked for me.
Thanks for this – exactly what I needed to know 🙂
Hi,
I did found mencoder, because sudo apt-get install mencoder didn’t work. After googeling I found out, that the multiverse repository had to be enabled and after a sudo apt-get update I only had to call the sudo apt-get install acidrip command.

Thanks a lot.
I had to convert ogg files to avi so that I can watch podcasts on my Nokia 5800 when I am on move.
Sadly 5800 XpressMusic doesn’t support ogg. 😦
