Does anyone know a way to convert .mp4 video to .ogg
video (in Windows)? None of the converters I've seen online seem to do the job.

I see people promoting SUPER quite often and I'm not sure why, when options such as Miro or plain old FFmpeg are available?
To do this with ffmpeg just use this (simple) command:
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -codec:v libtheora -qscale:v 3 -codec:a libvorbis \
-qscale:a 3 -f ogv output.ogv
-qscale
is required to keep a reasonable video and audio quality, otherwise the default is very bad, see also: How do I convert MP4 to OGV while still retaining the same quality using FFMPEG?
Tested in Ubuntu 19.04, ffmpeg 4.3.1.

audio/video quality level should be specified with -qscale:v
and -qscale:a
- see https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/TheoraVorbisEncodingGuide -- default is very low quality
There is a typo. Should be ogg not ogv. I cant edit as it requires 6+ characters so I commented instead. – kosinix – 2017-03-16T06:18:54.420
The format was ogg video or ogv at the time of posting 7 years ago now; if it has changed then sure, but I doubt its relevant. – Paul Gregoire – 2017-03-16T14:02:40.230
@Paolo thanks for this, I've edited them into the answer. ogv seems to be the preferred format btw: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogg

SUPER is a gui frontend for ffmpeg, so it can convert mp4 into ogg.

If you want a good video converter that can convert pretty much anything to anything, I would highly recommend Handbrake. It is free and open source.
I used Handbrake on windows and never had any luck with it – zeitue – 2015-04-01T02:47:48.497
I personally can't recommend Handbrake on the OS specified in the question. I've tried it and haven't had very good luck. – Paul Gregoire – 2010-09-12T05:13:19.013
@Mondain - Handbrake on Windows is great, it is the only video converter I use now. – William Hilsum – 2010-09-13T01:10:31.693
