Oh, OK. However the resulting file is pretty useless and not very
compatible with other platforms...

Bug description:
Using OpenShot 1.1.3 on Ubuntu Lucid.

When I export a movie for YouTubeHD, the following codecs are selected: 
1. video: libx264
2. audio: mp3
the format is mp4.

The resulting movie is recognized as corrupted (and therefore it doesn't play) on Quicktime and on other players, including YouTube.

I found that changing the audio codec to aac fixes the problem.

Is there any reason mp3 is chosen instead of aac? Otherwise I believe the latter should be the default option.
