SUMMARY
KRecorder is using WMV format file for default. And don't save when you change it in configuration.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open KREcorder
2. Record an audio
3. Files saved in WMV format

OBSERVED RESULT


EXPECTED RESULT
I preferred that KRecorder use free and open formats like ogg or flac for default, or maybe wav.
