Converting an edit to mp4 and .ogv

My client approved an edit I created in FCP X and wants me to provide them with a .mp4 and .ogv final formats. I never heard of .ogv, can I convert it in Compressor 4. Is mp4 converted in Compressor to a .wmv? I have Pro version of Flip4 Mac and have a custom set up in Compresor 4for .wmv. What do I need/how to I convert a .ogv. What do I need to view a .ogv file?

tks for your help.

imac 27 , 2.8 Ghz, i7core, 8 GB memory, Mac OS X (10.6.4), iBook PowerPC G3 ver. 10.4.11

Compressor can't do this. There are a number of QuickTime to .ogv converters. There's even an online converter. Google will find them.

.mp4 is an MPEG-4 file. .wmv is a Windows Media Video file. They're not the same.

Tom, hope you don't mind me asking for more help but I still stuck on the .ogv. I can't find anything. I'm Mac based and the edit is from FCP X. I converted to quictime and .mp4 but no results with Google trying to convert. Anything eles you know you can pass on?
