What operating system do you use ? Windows 7

List of actions to perform to reproduce the problem:

1. ..Add a youtube url
2. ..select M4a as wanted
3. ..it works but with transcoding from Webm

What is the expected behaviour ? an M4a , directly [code 140]

What happens instead ? first a Webm is downloaded, then it gets transcoded into the M4a

---

FFmpeg is instaled because I think it's needed to fix some Tag so that the M4a can be heard in eg ipods, but this would be a minimal operation and almost instantaneous, not as it's used at present, transcoding from Webm to M4a. [personaly I prefer Ogg, this problem is observed at a friend's that needs M4a ]

-All video options are unticked, only MP3, M4a and Ogg are ticked -M4a selected as the one wanted for download.

Thx
