How it works

Three steps to your converted file

Everything happens in your browser tab - upload, pick a format, download. The heavy lifting runs on our servers.

01

Upload your file

Drag and drop, click to browse, or paste a URL. Batches take up to 20 files at once - 230+ input formats across video, audio, image, document, and archive types.

02

Choose an output format

Pick from over a hundred output formats. Filter by category or search by name - every option is open to everyone, no account needed.

03

Convert & download

Hit Convert and grab your download link moments later. Originals are erased when the job completes; results are cleared within about an hour.

What is an OPUS file?

Opus is a modern, royalty-free lossy audio codec standardized by the IETF (RFC 6716). It combines the SILK codec (originally built for Skype) with the CELT codec to deliver high audio quality at very low bitrates and latency, scaling smoothly from low-bitrate speech to high-fidelity music. Its efficiency and low latency have made it the default codec for WebRTC, Discord, WhatsApp, and Microsoft Teams voice and video calls.

How to open an OPUS file

Opus files play natively in VLC Media Player, Firefox, and Chrome, and most modern operating systems include native decoder support. On older systems or media players without Opus support, the format can be converted to a more universally compatible format like MP3 or WAV.

What is an OGG file?

The OGG file extension refers to the Ogg container format, an open-source, patent-free bitstream container maintained by the Xiph.Org Foundation. While capable of multiplexing independent streams for audio, video, and text (subtitles), it is most commonly associated with audio data compressed using the Vorbis codec (Ogg Vorbis). The format relies on the Ogg page structure for data encapsulation and is designed for efficient streaming and manipulation. Newer implementations may utilize the Opus codec for audio or Theora for video within the same container architecture.

How to open an OGG file

OGG files enjoy broad support in open-source environments and modern web browsers. Most Linux distributions play OGG natively. On Windows and macOS, native players may require DirectShow filters or codec installation (like Web Media Extensions). VLC Media Player, Foobar2000, and Audacity are the most reliable tools for opening and editing OGG files across all operating systems without additional configuration.
