Playing .ogg video files on Windows XP

1

By default, Windows XP has no support for .ogg video files. What can be used to read and play these files?

You can use VLC media player, that will play almost anything. See http://www.videolan.org/vlc/.

1Maybe audio - this is about video files in .ogg – Simon Sheehan – 2011-12-22T01:32:37.667

I probably didn't notice "video" because I didn't realise there was such a thing as a video .ogg file. Thanks for the heads up - do you think I should delete my answer? – Highly Irregular – 2012-01-18T03:47:52.390
