xvid is *only* a video codec. it does not manipulate audio or container
formats.

to encode xvid+oggvorbis, you need an encoding 'application' that
supports xvid and ogg vorbis. under linux, you can try mencoder
(http://www.mplayerhq.hu) or ffmpeg (http://www.ffmpeg.org)

yep. its only a calculator, to determine the optimal bitrate to
reach a target filesize.
