Ogg/Vorbis/Theora is preferred.  Most other formats have patent
problems.  I like the subtitles - they will be easier to translate
than audio commentary.  I'm not sure how you get subtitles into
Ogg/Theora though.

Record My Desktop seems to be adding a "skeleton" track to the Ogg file

mplayer doesn't know what do do with a track of that type either but
at least it doesn't throw up a annoying dialog.
