Just a note about codecs: There are 2 packages that contain codecs
used by MLT (and thus OpenShot). libavcodec and libavcodec-extra (or
unstripped). The medibuntu repository has a special version of
libavcodec-extra which includes aac encoding. However, I have removed
aac encoding from OpenShot due to legal issues, and that should remove
the need to install the medibuntu repository. So... if you install
the standard "libavcodec-extra" library included with Ubuntu, all
export options should now work in OpenShot (assuming your are using
version 1.1). If you are still using version 1.0, then you will need
the medibuntu repository.

Hope this makes sense. =)

Thanks,
-Jonathan
