Convert OGG to MP3 online
Convert a OGG file to MP3 directly in your browser — the file is never uploaded to a server.

Convert an OGG file (Ogg Vorbis audio, the open-source codec widely used in video games and open-source software) into MP3, so it plays on hardware and apps that have no Vorbis decoder.
Ogg Vorbis is a free, patent-unencumbered lossy codec that game engines and open-source projects favor for licensing reasons, but it's the odd one out on many consumer devices. This tool decodes the Vorbis audio inside the OGG container and re-encodes it as MP3, the format nearly every player supports.
Use cases
- Extract game sound effects or music shipped as OGG files and convert them for use in a video editor that only accepts MP3.
- Play an OGG audio track from an open-source project on a device with no Vorbis support.
- Convert OGG voice recordings from open-source software into MP3 for sharing.
How it works
- 1
Upload your OGG file
Drop the file in or select it from your device.
- 2
Adjust the bitrate if you want
A high automatic quality is used by default; you can set a specific bitrate in the options.
- 3
Download the MP3
Once it's done, download the resulting file.
Technical details
Runs ffmpeg.wasm in your browser. At equivalent bitrates, Vorbis and MP3 deliver broadly comparable quality, so this conversion is less about sound and more about opening doors: many portable players, in-car systems and legacy software simply have no Vorbis decoder built in.
Frequently asked questions
Why do video games use OGG instead of MP3?
Ogg Vorbis is free of licensing fees and patents, which made it the safer default for game engines and open-source software for years, even though it isn't as universally supported by hardware as MP3.
Will converting OGG to MP3 change the sound quality much?
At a matching bitrate the two codecs sound similar, so the change is usually minor. The main reason to convert is compatibility, not quality.
