Not quite sure what to make of the latest PMS beta announcement… In the release note’s it says… Plex Media Server
" * (Playback) Assume unknown audio to be foreign if the preferred audio language is not english (#6126)"
It doesn’t say anything about assuming to treat unknown audio as a specific language, Only to assume unknown audio as foreign if English is not preferred language??? Im not in the beta program so cant test this. Hopefully there is a drop down selection to chose which language you would like Unknown audio to be treated/seen as.
Either way, Its progress!
=================================================================
EDIT: Can confirm that this Plex PMS beta update is no longer automatically enabling English subtitles (My preferred language) for files with Unknown audio!
Just installed the latest beta update for PMS, Tried a MKV file with Unknown audio & English subtitles (English is my preferred language). Before this update, Plex would enable the English subtitle if the only audio track for that file was labelled as Unknown. Now, It ignores the English subtitle completely!
I also tried the same test file listed above (MKV/Unknown audio/English subtitle), But this time with a forced flag on the English subtitle. Plex detected the forced flag & enabled the subtitle. Awesome!
This is in fact the update we have been waiting for! Thanks Plex devs!
