Ogg currently supports CMML and Kate as text codecs.

Just like out-of-band time-aligned text come in multiple formats, in-line text codecs do, too. The study undertaken by Mozilla motivated the Xiph community to define a framework for mapping any type of text codec into Ogg through the so-called OggText mapping. A first implementation of this format exists for encapsulating srt files into Ogg.

In a Web framework (such as Firefox) it may not make sense to support all possible in-line text codecs. Instead, it may be useful to only support one comprehensive format, or at most a simple format (like srt) and a comprehensive format (like TDHT or Kate). Then, an existing format can be transcoded to one of these two formats for in-line encoding and Web delivery. For example, DFXP could be mapped to TDHT before encapsulation into Ogg.
