🟢 OGG to 3GP with Node.js

Convert OGG videos to 3GP format online for compatibility, delivery, and playback across devices and platforms.

Node.jsREST APIOGG → 3GP

Use this guide to convert OGG to 3GP with Node.js, then adapt the example to your own app, backend, or processing flow.

Overview

What this guide covers

Conversion path

Use Converterer to accept or prepare a OGG file, trigger a OGG to 3GP job, and return the output to your app or workflow.

Node.js example

Start with the example on this page, then adapt auth, file handling, polling, and result delivery to your environment.

Production usage

This is best suited to backend jobs, async processing, content pipelines, and repeatable conversion flows rather than one-off browser scripting.

Quick start

Get a working example in place

Code example

OGG to 3GP

import { readFileSync } from 'node:fs';
import { Buffer } from 'node:buffer';

const auth = 'Basic ' + Buffer
  .from(process.env.CONVERTERER_API_KEY + ':')
  .toString('base64');

const form = new FormData();
form.append(
  'input',
  new Blob([readFileSync('input.ogg')]),
  'input.ogg'
);
form.append('output_format', '3gp');

const res = await fetch('https://api.converterer.com/convert', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { Authorization: auth },
  body: form,
});

const task = await res.json();
console.log(task.id);
// Result lands at <your-destination>/<task.id>.3gp
