          Basic command is



          ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libtheora -q:v 7 -c:a libvorbis -q:a 4 output.ogv


          You'll have to fiddle with the q values for video and audio if the result's not acceptable. Lower values are better but produce bigger files. For libtheora, it's the opposite - higher values are better. Range is 0-10.
