Can't launch openshot after changing regional settings #14

Hi.

I changed my regional settings from Norwegian (which has , (comma) as a decimal separator) to American English (which has . (period) as a decimal separator).

This resulted in the inability to launch OpenShot except by removing ~/.openshot_qt as adviced.
Seems like there is something that depends on regional settings inside .openshot_qt

$ launch-openshot

I have committed a fix for this tonight, which forces all numbers to be 1234.56 format, and prevents breakages. If you are using Linux, and update will be available soon. Otherwise, I'll make some new Mac and Windows installers soon. Thanks

Sounds like a good move. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I'll probably get around to test this tonight.
