Plex Chooses Wrong Audio Track for Live TV.

Okay, so this is less a question or discussion, and more of a comment.

I have noticed that if you turn on Automatic Language detection with Plex, and allow it to choose the language automatically, in this case English it sometimes selects the wrong track. I know why this is happening, and I am not sure a fix is even possible, which is why I said more of a comment.

I have a HD Homerun Prime with a Comcast Cable Card out of Chicagoland, IL. I noticed anything I record on HD Channel 189(CBS) the primary track says Espanol, and is actually in English. It is also the 5.1 track. The other track is English 2.0, and the channel appears to switch between the two during commercials, as my recordings have no sound for some commercials. Enabling the auto track selection seems to turn on SAP and choose the Spanish track when watching Live TV. So it was always coming in in Spanish. When I turn this automatic language selection off, the Live TV track seems to choose correctly, Just chooses the first I guess, which is English(Labeled Espanol). So for the time being I cannot use this feature, which is fine, all of my videos have single english track, it was just nice to have it select the subtitle track for non-english speaking sections, and I will have to do this manually now.

So in case any one else has this issue, the above seems to be what causes it.
