Haha! Subject near and dear to my heart. :) .ogv is an ogg container.
It's just a MIME difference AFAIK.

Here's info: http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/MIME_Types_and_File_Extensions

So you should be able to just name it .ogv and be fine. This is also
what I was told for audio ad well on the #vorbis channel.
