Before this change, trying to select a track which + did not exist would fall back to track default selection at playback + initialization. The new behavior is more consistent. + + Setting a track selection property at runtime, and then playing a new + file might reset the track selection to defaults, if the fingerprint + of the track list of the new file is different. + + Be aware of tricky combinations of all of all of the above: for example, + ``mpv --aid=2 file_with_2_audio_tracks.mkv file_with_1_audio_track.mkv`` + would first play the correct track, and the second file without audio. + If you then go back the first file, its first audio track will be played, + and the second file is played with audio. If you do the same thing again + but instead of using ``--aid=2`` you run ``set aid 2`` while the file is + playing, then changing to the second file will play its audio track. + This is because runtime selection enables the fingerprint heuristic. + Most likely this is not the end. ``--sid=<ID|auto|no>`` |
