I really like the mockups in the referenced thread and I hope these
settings changes can be implemented relatively quickly.  I would prefer
a "Constant Quality" or similar option in the "compression method"
pulldown instead of requiring users to know advanced ffmpeg encoding
options.  A constant quality setting is already available in Pitivi,
Avidemux, Handbrake, and others for examples.    There's not much left
in my wishlist, but "Constant Quality" encoding is at the top.  Thanks
for the great work on a top notch video editor!

Title:
  Rework Export window

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Some enhancements to the export window are needed. This bug report
  consolidates a number of others into one.

  1. Don't allow invalid format/codec combinations. In the advanced tab,
  users can select any format/codec combination. If they are an invalid
  combination, it results in a crash in ffmpeg. Hanspb has created a
  sheet of valid combinations. See
  http://openshotusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1150#p5870

  2. Ensure formats get exported with the commonly used extensions,
  i.e.mkv instead of matroska. See the sheet above for format/extension
  details.

  3. Provide a way to export only part of the timeline, whether it is by
  markers on the timeline or a position counter on the export window.

  4. Include the ability to save custom export settings as a new preset.

  5. For advanced users, allow the use of ffmpeg encoding options
  directly.

  6. Show encoding time estimation.

  There is a thread in the forum including some good mockups.
