The root problem here is MLT passes all of these export settings to
FFmpeg, which has an unhandled exception.  This immediately kills the
Python interpreter, and thus there is no way for me to handle the error.
We need to have a list of "valid" export combinations (which is what we
are trying to do with our simple export settings).  We'll revisit this
topic soon.  Thanks.

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Confirmed

Bug description:
The terminal output gave me a "floating point exception" when trying to export with the settings shown in the attachment.

Similar to bug 395703.  I suppose because these are "advanced" settings, it's up to the user not to attempt invalid combinations, but at the very least it would be nice if OpenShot failed gracefully, with a pop-up alert rather than crashing entirely.
