- [VideoStream] resource handling the [url=https://www.theora.org/]Ogg Theora[/url] video format with [code].ogv[/code] extension.
+ [VideoStream] resource handling the [url=https://www.theora.org/]Ogg Theora[/url] video format with [code].ogv[/code] extension. The Theora codec is less efficient than [VideoStreamWebm]'s VP8 and VP9, but it requires less CPU resources to decode. The Theora codec is decoded on the CPU.
+ [b]Note:[/b] While Ogg Theora videos can also have an [code].ogg[/code] extension, you will have to rename the extension to [code].ogv[/code] to use those videos within Godot.

The VP8 and VP9 codecs are more efficient than [VideoStreamTheora], but they require more CPU resources to decode (especially VP9). Both the VP8 and VP9 codecs are decoded on the CPU.
