Requirements
First you need playback software. By default you can use the Windows Media Player, but you need extra codecs (see below). Alternatively you can use the free VLC media player or MPlayer. They can play Ogg as installed.
Downloading required Codecs
Now you have to download a necessary extension (Codec), so that your media player will be able to play sound and video files with the Ogg Vorbis file type (sound files) and with the Ogg Theora file type (video files).
- Load the website www.illiminable.com/ogg/ and click the link on the right hand side Download Now.
- The file size is 800 kB. After you downloaded it to your hard disk, open the file and follow the installation guide.
