RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
1. Introduction
This document describes media types for Ogg, a data encapsulation
format defined by the Xiph.Org Foundation for public use. Refer to
"Introduction" in [RFC3533] and "Overview" in [Ogg] for background
information on this container format.
Binary data contained in Ogg, such as Vorbis and Theora, has
historically been interchanged using the application/ogg media type
as defined by [RFC3534]. This document obsoletes [RFC3534] and
defines three media types for different types of content in Ogg to
reflect this usage in the IANA media type registry, to foster
interoperability by defining underspecified aspects, and to provide
general security considerations.
The Ogg container format is known to contain [Theora] or [Dirac]
video, [Speex] (narrow-band and wide-band) speech, [Vorbis] or [FLAC]
audio, and [CMML] timed text/metadata. As Ogg encapsulates binary
data, it is possible to include any other type of video, audio,
image, text, or, generally speaking, any time-continuously sampled
data.
While raw packets from these data sources may be used directly by
transport mechanisms that provide their own framing and packet-
separation mechanisms (such as UDP datagrams or RTP), Ogg is a
solution for stream based storage (such as files) and transport (such
as TCP streams or pipes). The media types defined in this document
are needed to correctly identify such content when it is served over
HTTP, included in multi-part documents, or used in other places where
media types [RFC2045] are used.
2. Changes Since RFC 3534
o The type "application/ogg" is redefined.
o The types "video/ogg" and "audio/ogg" are defined.
o New file extensions are defined.
o New Macintosh file type codes are defined.
o The codecs parameter is defined for optional use.
o The Ogg Skeleton extension becomes a recommended addition for
content served under the new types.

RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
3. Conformance and Document Conventions
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, [RFC2119] and
indicate requirement levels for compliant implementations.
Requirements apply to all implementations unless otherwise stated.
An implementation is a software module that supports one of the media
types defined in this document. Software modules may support
multiple media types, but conformance is considered individually for
each type.
Implementations that fail to satisfy one or more "MUST" requirements
are considered non-compliant. Implementations that satisfy all
"MUST" requirements, but fail to satisfy one or more "SHOULD"
requirements, are said to be "conditionally compliant". All other
implementations are "unconditionally compliant".
4. Deployed Media Types and Compatibility
The application/ogg media type has been used in an ad hoc fashion to
label and exchange multimedia content in Ogg containers.
Use of the "application" top-level type for this kind of content is
known to be problematic, in particular since it obfuscates video and
audio content. This document thus defines the media types,
o video/ogg
o audio/ogg
which are intended for common use and SHOULD be used when dealing
with video or audio content, respectively. This document also
obsoletes the [RFC3534] definition of application/ogg and marks it
for complex data (e.g., multitrack visual, audio, textual, and other
time-continuously sampled data), which is not clearly video or audio
data and thus not suited for either the video/ogg or audio/ogg types.
Refer to the following section for more details.
An Ogg bitstream generally consists of one or more logical bitstreams
that each consist of a series of header and data pages packetising
time-continuous binary data [RFC3533]. The content types of the
logical bitstreams may be identified without decoding the header
pages of the logical bitstreams through use of a [Skeleton]
bitstream. Using Ogg Skeleton is REQUIRED for content served under
Goncalves, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
the application/ogg type and RECOMMENDED for video/ogg and audio/ogg,
as Skeleton contains identifiers to describe the different
encapsulated data.
Furthermore, it is RECOMMENDED that implementations that identify a
logical bitstream that they cannot decode SHOULD ignore it, while
continuing to decode the ones they can. Such precaution ensures
backward and forward compatibility with existing and future data.
These media types can optionally use the "codecs" parameter described
in [RFC4281]. Codecs encapsulated in Ogg require a text identifier
at the beginning of the first header page, hence a machine-readable
method to identify the encapsulated codecs would be through this
header. The following table illustrates how those header values map
into strings that are used in the "codecs" parameter when dealing
with Ogg media types.
Codec Identifier | Codecs Parameter
-----------------------------------------------------------
char[5]: 'BBCD\0' | dirac
char[5]: '\177FLAC' | flac
char[7]: '\x80theora' | theora
char[7]: '\x01vorbis' | vorbis
char[8]: 'CELT ' | celt
char[8]: 'CMML\0\0\0\0' | cmml
char[8]: '\213JNG\r\n\032\n' | jng
char[8]: '\x80kate\0\0\0' | kate
char[8]: 'OggMIDI\0' | midi
char[8]: '\212MNG\r\n\032\n' | mng
char[8]: 'PCM ' | pcm
char[8]: '\211PNG\r\n\032\n' | png
char[8]: 'Speex ' | speex
char[8]: 'YUV4MPEG' | yuv4mpeg
An up-to-date version of this table is kept at Xiph.org (see
[Codecs]).
Possible examples include:
o application/ogg; codecs="theora, cmml, ecmascript"
o video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"
o audio/ogg; codecs=speex

RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
5. Relation between the Media Types
As stated in the previous section, this document describes three
media types that are targeted at different data encapsulated in Ogg.
Since Ogg is capable of encapsulating any kind of data, the multiple
usage scenarios have revealed interoperability issues between
implementations when dealing with content served solely under the
application/ogg type.
While this document does redefine the earlier definition of
application/ogg, this media type will continue to embrace the widest
net possible of content with the video/ogg and audio/ogg types being
smaller subsets of it. However, the video/ogg and audio/ogg types
take precedence in a subset of the usages, specifically when serving
multimedia content that is not complex enough to warrant the use of
application/ogg. Following this line of thought, the audio/ogg type
is an even smaller subset within video/ogg, as it is not intended to
refer to visual content.
As such, the application/ogg type is the recommended choice to serve
content aimed at scientific and other applications that require
various multiplexed signals or streams of continuous data, with or
without scriptable control of content. For bitstreams containing
visual, timed text, and any other type of material that requires a
visual interface, but that is not complex enough to warrant serving
under application/ogg, the video/ogg type is recommended. In
situations where the Ogg bitstream predominantly contains audio data
(lyrics, metadata, or cover art notwithstanding), it is recommended
to use the audio/ogg type.
6. Encoding Considerations
Binary: The content consists of an unrestricted sequence of octets.
Note:
o Ogg encapsulated content is binary data and should be transmitted
in a suitable encoding without CR/LF conversion, 7-bit stripping,
etc.; base64 [RFC4648] is generally preferred for binary-to-text
encoding.
o Media types described in this document are used for stream based
storage (such as files) and transport (such as TCP streams or
pipes); separate types are used to identify codecs such as in
real-time applications for the RTP payload formats of Theora
[ThRTP] video, Vorbis [RFC5215], or Speex [SpRTP] audio, as well
as for identification of encapsulated data within Ogg through
Skeleton.
Goncalves, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
7. Security Considerations
Refer to [RFC3552] for a discussion of terminology used in this
section.
The Ogg encapsulation format is a container and only a carrier of
content (such as audio, video, and displayable text data) with a very
rigid definition. This format in itself is not more vulnerable than
any other content framing mechanism.
Ogg does not provide for any generic encryption or signing of itself
or its contained bitstreams. However, it encapsulates any kind of
binary content and is thus able to contain encrypted and signed
content data. It is also possible to add an external security
mechanism that encrypts or signs an Ogg bitstream and thus provides
content confidentiality and authenticity.
As Ogg encapsulates binary data, it is possible to include executable
content in an Ogg bitstream. Implementations SHOULD NOT execute such
content without prior validation of its origin by the end-user.
Issues may arise on applications that use Ogg for streaming or file
transfer in a networking scenario. In such cases, implementations
decoding Ogg and its encapsulated bitstreams have to ensure correct
handling of manipulated bitstreams, of buffer overflows, and similar
issues.
It is also possible to author malicious Ogg bitstreams, which attempt
to call for an excessively large picture size, high sampling-rate
audio, etc. Implementations SHOULD protect themselves against this
kind of attack.
Ogg has an extensible structure, so that it is theoretically possible
that metadata fields or media formats might be defined in the future
which might be used to induce particular actions on the part of the
recipient, thus presenting additional security risks. However, this
type of capability is currently not supported in the referenced
specification.
Implementations may fail to implement a specific security model or
other means to prevent possibly dangerous operations. Such failure
might possibly be exploited to gain unauthorized access to a system
or sensitive information; such failure constitutes an unknown factor
and is thus considered out of the scope of this document.
Goncalves, et al. Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
8. Interoperability Considerations
The Ogg container format is device-, platform-, and vendor-neutral
and has proved to be widely implementable across different computing
platforms through a wide range of encoders and decoders. A broadly
portable reference implementation [libogg] is available under the
revised (3-clause) BSD license, which is a Free Software license.
The Xiph.Org Foundation has defined the specification,
interoperability, and conformance and conducts regular
interoperability testing.
The use of the Ogg Skeleton extension has been confirmed to not cause
interoperability issues with existing implementations. Third parties
are, however, welcome to conduct their own testing.
9. IANA Considerations
In accordance with the procedures set forth in [RFC4288], this
document registers two new media types and redefines the existing
application/ogg as defined in the following section.
10. Ogg Media Types
10.1. application/ogg
Type name: application
Subtype name: ogg
Required parameters: none
Optional parameters: codecs, whose syntax is defined in RFC 4281.
See section 4 of RFC 5334 for a list of allowed values.
Encoding considerations: See section 6 of RFC 5334.
Security considerations: See section 7 of RFC 5334.
Interoperability considerations: None, as noted in section 8 of RFC
5334.

RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
Additional information:
Magic number(s): The first four bytes, 0x4f 0x67 0x67 0x53,
correspond to the string "OggS".
File extension(s): .ogx
RFC 3534 defined the file extension .ogg for application/ogg,
which RFC 5334 obsoletes in favor of .ogx due to concerns where,
historically, some implementations expect .ogg files to be solely
Vorbis-encoded audio.
Macintosh File Type Code(s): OggX
Person & Email address to contact for further information: See
"Authors' Addresses" section.
Intended usage: COMMON
Restrictions on usage: The type application/ogg SHOULD only be used
in situations where it is not appropriate to serve data under the
video/ogg or audio/ogg types. Data served under the application/ogg
type SHOULD use the .ogx file extension and MUST contain an Ogg
Skeleton logical bitstream to identify all other contained logical
bitstreams.
Author: See "Authors' Addresses" section.
Change controller: The Xiph.Org Foundation.
10.2. video/ogg
Type name: video
Subtype name: ogg
Required parameters: none
Optional parameters: codecs, whose syntax is defined in RFC 4281.
See section 4 of RFC 5334 for a list of allowed values.
Encoding considerations: See section 6 of RFC 5334.
Security considerations: See section 7 of RFC 5334.
Interoperability considerations: None, as noted in section 8 of RFC
5334.
Goncalves, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
Published specification: RFC 3533
Applications which use this media type: Multimedia applications,
including embedded, streaming, and conferencing tools.
Additional information:
Magic number(s): The first four bytes, 0x4f 0x67 0x67 0x53,
correspond to the string "OggS".
File extension(s): .ogv
Macintosh File Type Code(s): OggV
Person & Email address to contact for further information: See
"Authors' Addresses" section.
Intended usage: COMMON
Restrictions on usage: The type "video/ogg" SHOULD be used for Ogg
bitstreams containing visual, audio, timed text, or any other type of
material that requires a visual interface. It is intended for
content not complex enough to warrant serving under "application/
ogg"; for example, a combination of Theora video, Vorbis audio,
Skeleton metadata, and CMML captioning. Data served under the type
"video/ogg" SHOULD contain an Ogg Skeleton logical bitstream.
Implementations interacting with the type "video/ogg" SHOULD support
multiplexed bitstreams.
Author: See "Authors' Addresses" section.
Change controller: The Xiph.Org Foundation.
10.3. audio/ogg
Type name: audio
Subtype name: ogg
Required parameters: none
Optional parameters: codecs, whose syntax is defined in RFC 4281.
See section 4 of RFC 5334 for a list of allowed values.
Encoding considerations: See section 6 of RFC 5334.
Security considerations: See section 7 of RFC 5334.
Goncalves, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 5334 Ogg Media Types September 2008
Interoperability considerations: None, as noted in section 8 of RFC
5334.
Published specification: RFC 3533
Applications which use this media type: Multimedia applications,
including embedded, streaming, and conferencing tools.
Additional information:
Magic number(s): The first four bytes, 0x4f 0x67 0x67 0x53,
correspond to the string "OggS".
File extension(s): .oga, .ogg, .spx
Macintosh File Type Code(s): OggA
Person & Email address to contact for further information: See
"Authors' Addresses" section.
Intended usage: COMMON
Restrictions on usage: The type "audio/ogg" SHOULD be used when the
Ogg bitstream predominantly contains audio data. Content served
under the "audio/ogg" type SHOULD have an Ogg Skeleton logical
bitstream when using the default .oga file extension. The .ogg and
.spx file extensions indicate a specialization that requires no
Skeleton due to backward compatibility concerns with existing
implementations. In particular, .ogg is used for Ogg files that
contain only a Vorbis bitstream, while .spx is used for Ogg files
that contain only a Speex bitstream.
