Ogg is not an audio codec. Ogg is a container, like avi if you want.
While Vorbis is a an audio codec, like MP3. Usualy a vorbis stream
is contained in an Ogg, but it's not requiered.

It's not really closed source. I contacted the men who wrote this and he said he want to
release the source soon. He will even send me a copy when he release it so I can
implement it in mplayer asap.
