This command extracts the audio from a video file and puts it in a MP3 file. Ffmpeg automatically works out the right codecs to use from the output file extension, in this case it's MP3.

ffmpeg -i VIDEOFILE OUTPUTFILE.mp3

If you wish to do the same with ann OGG file, you have to specificy that you want audio only, you can do this with the -vn argument.

ffmpeg -i VIDEOFILE -vn OUTPUTFILE.ogg
