Ok So I have raw video file and a audio track that I want to put in container, as far as I know .ogg is an Container format so I want to know if there is a way to put my media files in this Container format like I can do this with .MKV format with this tool I do not want to encode this video I just want to place my media files in Container format and I want to try and use .ogg format for this task

thank you in advanced

Try using ffmpeg.

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-53

Once installation is complete, use the following template as your command in terminal. For example, if you download an mkv file and want to convert it to .ogg:

ffmpeg -i /path/to/file.mkv /path/to/file.ogg

Have you tried ogmtools?

According to bunkus.org MkVToolNix is:

"MKVToolNix is a set of tools to create, alter and inspect Matroska files under Linux, other Unices and Windows. They do for Matroska what the OGMtools do for the OGM format and then some."

And bunkus.org for Ogmtools says:

These tools allow information about (ogminfo) or extraction from (ogmdemux) or creation of (ogmmerge) OGG media streams. Note that I'll use OGM for "OGG media streams".

One tool into the Omgtools is ogmmerge (Merge multimedia streams into an OGG/OGM file)

If you want to install omgtools in ubuntu just type:

sudo apt-get install ogmtools

More information about OGG in Wikipedia and xiph.org.

Hope this will be helpful.

You can do this with avconv (or ffmpeg, the syntax is identical). From the command line:

avconv -i input_file -c copy output.ogg

This will copy all the streams, no re-encoding is done. Alternatively, if you have separate video & audio 

avconv -i input_video -i input_audio -c copy output.ogg

I'm not sure if the ogg container can contain raw video, you might need to use mkv or avi. Also, there's no reason to use actually raw video or audio (if that's what you really have) for archiving purposes; there are lossless codecs, which will reduce your filesize without losing any quality.

avconv -i input_video -i input_audio -c:a flac -c:v huffyuv output.mkv

You can also use lossless h.264 with

avconv -i input_video -i input_audio -c:a flac -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset ultrafast output.mkv

Or 'visually lossless' h.264 with 

avconv -i input_video -i input_audio -c:a flac -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -preset ultrafast output.mkv

The x264 presets are: ultrafast, superfast, veryfast, faster, fast, medium, slow, slower and veryslow; the slower presets give smaller filesizes, at the expense of longer encoding time.
