Audio conversion to .ogg should use Vorbis and not Flac codec as default

Bug Description

Hi,

After my test with audio conversion to .mp3 (see bug #1070737), I've tested with .ogg and, to my surprise, it uses the Flac codec as default.
So, as an exemple, 5 songs having a total size of 21,3 Mb in .wma increase to 114,1 Mb in .ogg.
That's not what you can see as an alternative to mp3 files for a music player you carry with you...

But it seems it is not directly the fault of Format Junkie, as this test shows it:

So this is the tool of libav, avconv that is set so and I have no idea how to change this behaviour, as I think I have all the libraries needed for Ogg Vorbis:

fsw@mir ~ $ sudo aptitude search libogg
i libogg0
fsw@mir ~ $ sudo aptitude search libvorbis
i libvorbis0a
i libvorbisenc2
i libvorbisfile3
fsw@mir ~ $ sudo aptitude search vorbis-tools
i A vorbis-tools

And here is the output of avconv -codecs:

We can't call Format Junkie stable yet, because it was made in 3 weeks as you know for the ubuntu app showdown...
We are making some changes to our other programm Wallch, and we will come back developing format junkie, fixing bugs and adding new features.. Please give us a time of 1-2 weeks to see a new update at format-junkie with these 2 bugs fixed :)

I can do it, if needed...
