That's not going to work. Video on Internet is quite new and maybe (and I really hope) one day someone will provide a video with multiple tracks. If this person want to publish a video with 3-4 audio tracks, how the browser will handle the streams ? Will he download the audio tracks simultaneously (in this case I think it's an huge waste of bandwidth) or will he be enough clever to download the played track only (so, in this case less bandwidth and a little lag when changing language). I think Maurice think about it and also about the video over the year. If someone like very very much a video and decide to sub it in his language how will he do ? He will have to send the subs to the user and wait he mux the file ? Muxing a file for adding a track isn't easy (if I remember well adding a track using MKVmerge don't work as good as expected) and there is always the upload process which will waste a lot of time for the user. -- Nicolas LE GALL http://blog.neovov.com FOAF : http://blog.neovov.com/foaf.rdf
