Ogg is an mp3-like compression audio format except that it is open-source and patent free. For these reasons many audio users prefer this format over MP3 files. FLAC is a lossless audio format. This means that the audio is compressed, but there is no loss in quality. Unfortunately, both OGG and FLAC can’t played in Windows Media Player by default. To get Ogg and FLAC files supported in WMP, you have two options.
Method 1: Download and Install Open Codecs
Windows Media Player doesn’t include support for Ogg, Flac, and other music file formats natively. If you want to play OGG and FLAC in WMP, you can download and install Open Codecs that will enable WMP to play both types of files. Open Codecs is a free download and will allow WMP to play Ogg Vorbis, Speex, Theora, Flac, and WebM music files. Xiph.org also has a QuickTime component that will let you play OGG and Flac files in iTunes.
The installation is easy, just follow the defaults in the install wizard.
If you had WMP open while installing Open Codecs, you’ll need to restart it. After that you can start playing Ogg and Flac files in Media Player right away.
Method 2: Convert OGG and FLAC to MMP playable format
A large number of audio conversion software packages exist for converting these OGG and FLAC files to WMP, mp3, or anything else that WMP will play natively. Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate is such a video and audio converter for Windows Media Player. It can convert OGG and FLAC to WMA and MP3 for WMP losslessly. Besides, it can convert WMP unsupported video such as MKV, AVI, FLV, TS, VOB, MP4 to WMP. Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate is also a Blu-ray Ripper and DVD Ripper that can remove Blu-ray and DVD copy protection and rip Blu-ray and DVD to WMP.
