Is it still super complicated and like a lot of hard work?
It's not too hard now if you're running Firefox 3.5. Just edit your
video in whatever video software is easiest on your machine (e.g.,
Windows Movie Maker) and save a high quality version in a convenient
format (e.g., AVI, MPEG, other common formats), then go
firefogg.org,
install the plug-in, click "make ogg", and use the default encoding
settings.
If you're feeling especially ambitious, you can add metadata and/or
fiddle with the resolution and bit-rate settings (all through
firefogg). Converting to Commons-ready ogg with firefogg is actually
easier than uploading a file to Commons.
