Comment (by Vika Apelsinova):

 Replying to [comment:5 cehoyos]:

 the code to output incompatible files by default?

 Looks like the latest versions of all popular open source players at this
 moment support A_QUICKTIME (without a trailing codec name) scheme (VLC,
 MPayer, FFMPEG, etc.). How much time is necessary to wait and for what? Is
 there hardware players that don't support decoding files with A_QUICKTIME
 (without a trailing codec name) Codec ID?

 FFMPEG producing MKV files using A_QUICKTIME/QDM2, MKVToolNix producing
 MKV files using A_QUICKTIME (without a trailing codec name) according to
 specs. Don't you agree that we need standardization?
