No audio if you choose .mp4 video format #419

I have version 2.4.0 (Open Video Downloader). I've noticed that it only downloads videos in (.mkv) format even though you can choose from (Auto, .MKV or .mp4).

When choosing .mp4 as the video format. The program will download the video, but not the audio. The audio selection is on auto but there is no video. If I change to any other audio format, there is no change. Still no sound.

Settings, output, attempt to use output format: Auto. Change Auto to .MP4. Video is downloaded but no audio. That's the only change from default settings.

Can confirm, .mp4 does not have sound for me, and auto actually sets the output to be .webm instead of .mkv in my case. However there's neat way to make .mp4 output video - enable codecs choice, and select another one than already used. In my case audio codec mp4a.40.5 worked!
