Note that ogv is not only useful for Cortado, but HTML5 in Firefox.

It would be absolutely brilliant to see you share presets with Transmageddon and Arista (which already have a common format):

Video Type: Same as input
Video Format: Copy of original format
Video Codec: Same as input
Audio Codec: Same as input
Suggested Video Bitrate: Same as input
Suggested Audio Bitrate: Same as input
Suggested Project Profile: Copy Codecs
Notes on Usage: When a user only need is to cut or mix multiple video files with other source audio and then export all without transcoding and quality loss at all!

P.S: Will be great OpenShot to support also muxing/demuxing of MKV tracks: video/audio/subtitles.
