Not always, but occasionally I have issues with playing a video and the language not being my preferred (English). Either the video doesn’t have English audio or it’s not the default. Not a biggie but it can waste some time if there’s no talking for the first few min and my family isn’t used to navigating audio settings.
VLC lets you set automatic audio preference matching, so that you type in “eng” in the settings, and it will try and pick an audio track that has “eng” in it’s title, great for multi-lang media but doesn’t work for stuff like commentary tracks rarely.
Thanks, I didn’t know that was a VLC setting. It’d be nice if there was some type of standard for language and audio tracks etc. so there’s less chance of error due to free typing the name of a track.
