Public bug reported:

Hi,
I think that will be a very good think and idea, if we had the new web  and powerful and also free format who is  WebM. He has been free by Google and had like specification a container/encapsulation Matrovska, VP8 for the Video codec and Audio codec Vorbis. Obviously, this Format have the support of Google who is a luck of his quickly adoption in the world.
The only tool who manage this new format is FFmpeg but only in the version 0.6.0.
Like the next version will come near of the version of Ubuntu 10.10 Marverick Merkat who she, integrated this version, we should introduce him in this version.
For doing some tests with, two tools : Gstreamer and FFmpeg. For having this version, there is a PPA (be careful i have not yet tested). that you can find here (see the thread on our forum) : http://openshotusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=538
