When I said Ogg Vorbis was the audio codec, I wasn't trying to correct
you - just to point out that Ogg is more than just audio. Files encoded
with ogg vorbis are typically .ogg file, which is why everyone (me
included) calls them "ogg files". However, Ogg is actually just the
container, and can encapsulate numerous different codecs for audio and
video data. It's well worth a quick look at the wikipedia article at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogg for details.
