Are these tags, you created or took from other specs ?

Also another note... It seems that lot of IDs are invalid !!!

Some (the chapterUID and trackUID) uses the same value as in the other 
parts of the file (duplicate = bad). Others just don't follow the EBML 
rules ([12][XX] is supposed to be [12][XX][XX][XX] for example).

I added a new Targets system which is more logical and put everything in 
one place.

Now with the Genres list, there can be a list of Audio genres, so it's 
not needed anymore (removed).

If you mean the PCM-to-AAC encoder, then it should be put in the Track 
directly and not editable neither.
