MediaSource default audio/sub streams

[Luke 42077]

MediaSources now have two new properties:

 

• DefaultAudioStreamIndex
• DefaultSubitleStreamIndex

 

These are user-specific pieces of information that tell you what tracks to use by default based on user settings. Keeping it on the server allows for more expansion later, e.g. play -> switch tracks -> resume on another device and the track changes are remembered.

 

Anyone using the new StreamBuilder library to construct url's will get this change for free (both java + .net).  Everyone else should put it on their roadmaps.

 

If you haven't implemented media sources yet that's something of a prerequisite. The documentation on that is complete:
