    Audio: 4.4.0.1

    First test with newly-transcoded audio from Jay.

    • macOS 10.9.5 x86-64
    • Testing with TDF build of LibreOffice 4.4.0.1 RC
    • Using the system's QuickTime Player Version 10.3 (727.4)
    • (As expected) Trying to install WebM or XiphQT Components support into QuickTime does not appear to have an effect on the codecs supported by QuickTime
