It would resolve the problem explained in this question: [http://forums.plex.tv/discussion/comment/1216192](http://forums.plex.tv/discussion/comment/1216192)  
You’ll be able to check whether audio mas modified or not.  
Also it would be great if it could be possible to add “originial\_format” metadata attribute or something like `<VideoAudioCodec source_name="ac3" name="aac">`.
