iMovie export to Ogg Theora?

Question

After I finish editing a movie with iMovie '09 under Mac OS X 10.6.4, is there a way to export the final product to Ogg Theora format? OR, is there a way to convert an already exported movie to Ogg Theora easily?

Answer 1

As part of Dive Into HTML5, Mark Pilgrim gives two options:

• Encoding Ogg Video With Firefogg
• Batch Encoding Ogg Video With ffmpeg2theora

One or both of those should work for you.

Answer 2

Just install the XiphQT Quicktime plugin... allows any of the Quicktime-based OS X video players/editors, including iMovie, to export to Theora.
