Summary0015328: VP8/VP9 should be supported codecs for MKV container
DescriptionIf the user attempts to encode/auto-convert video to MKV, the only codec options are H264/MP4. Considering that VP8/VP9 within an MKV container are supported on Android (see https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/media-formats ), users should allow the user to set those codecs for that container.

In addition, we may even want to set VP9 as the default codec since it's included with MM5 and supported on Android.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

Haali MKV muxer we use does not support Vorbis/Opus audio, so we cannot mux to file format supported by Android.
But it should be already covered by WEBM conversion, is MKV really needed? WEBM(VP8/9,Vorbis) should already work and should be usable on Android too.

We'll consider this resolved since vp8/vp9 are implemented with webm, and although mkv is supported on Android, I haven't seen any such files yet using vp8/vp9.
