You will be disappointed to see that "using the same codec" but unpacking and repacking video will not take minutes but hours to process your file. -ovc copy ia a good choice if you e.g. want to replace the soundtrack or encode the soundtrack in some way with no changes to the video. One can save really a lot of time, as -ovc copy usually runs a bit faster than any video codec. A bit faster often means here like 100 or more times faster. It is alike the difference between using network to copy a mp3-file from one machine to another to using an audio cable to connect the sound cards and playing on one machine while recording on the other. The network variant has it's advantages.
