Comment 49 for bug 63996

That's what I switched to and works for the most part.

I found that I had problems editing or viewing the resulting Ogg file
on some platforms so I use this ffmpeg based script to transcode the
file:

#!/bin/bash

INPUT_FILE=$1
OUTPUT_FILE=$2

ffmpeg -i ${INPUT_FILE} -s 960x720 -vcodec mpeg4 ${OUTPUT_FILE}
