Forum:Can OGG videos be uploaded and played

I've looked around a little and can not find much yet. Nothing here:
 * http://help.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Videos

The upload page says this: "Permitted file types: png, gif, jpg, jpeg, ico, ogg, pdf, xcf, svg, mid, odt, ods, odp, odg, odc, odf, odi, odm, ogv, oga."

I want to convert some Flash files (SWF) to OGV and upload them to Wikia. But I have not found any working OGV videos on Wikia yet. Can someone point me to some? I have the latest Firefox browser. It plays OGG videos fine on Wikipedia. See the examples on these Wikipedia and Wikimedia pagea:
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogg
 * http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Videos

Also, what are some free tools for converting Flash (SWF) files to OGV files? I have some animated event graphics I want to upload. --Timeshifter 23:09, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

I am sorry to say I don't know any tools that can convert SWF to OGV, but I'm sure one exists somewhere. 23:12, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * A few months ago I uploaded an .ogv here :).


 * My Firefox browser can not play that video. But my Firefox browser will play the OGV video (3rd one down) on this page:
 * http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/video-test-page


 * My Internet Explorer browser plays your OGV video, but not the OGV video on the mozilla.com page.


 * Both browsers play the video on this forum page:
 * http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Ogg_Videos%3F - Firefox says it is using "Native browser support". Internet Explorer says it is using "VLC (ActiveX)".


 * http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/File:Spirit_Tracks_Opening.ogg is the video in the above forum thread. --Timeshifter 00:41, August 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Strange. None of the videos work with my Internet Explorer and the video on my wiki doesn't work with Firefox either. However, they both work on Google Chrome. 00:57, August 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * w:c:zelda:File:Spirit_Tracks_Opening.ogg works for me in FireFox 5.0.1 on Mac OS X. What versions of browsers did you try? -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 16 Aug 2011 7:12 PM Pacific
