What a pity! Is there another approach?

What a pity! Is there another approach?

Not that I could quickly find in the api-documentation...
On the website itself I can't find anything similar either

Thanks for your research!

is anyone else having YouTube playbacks in Spanish? my YouTube is uk and english but a lot new vids are voice over'd

Yeah, same here. Not on all videos, though. It appears the creators can activate the translation 'services' for their videos. On some channels I get the AI-translated audio consistently, on others the original track as usual. On the YouTube-website, the affected videos also have translated video titles, but not in OnlineVideos. The unaffected ones don't even show the option to choose an audio-track on the website, so either the creators have deactivated it or YouTube just hasn't gotten around yet to process them.

One beacon of light is, that on the YouTube-website the original audio track is marked as such, so hopefully the original track can be requested specifically by the plugin somehow.

Do you have some specific examples for this?

 

[bta489]

Here are two random examples:

• • In Browser (default settings, not logged in to YouTube): translated title and audio track (to my local language)
  • In OnlineVideos: english title, translated audio track (portuguese or spanish by the sound of it, but not sure. definitely not the original though)
• • In Browser (default settings, not logged in to YouTube): Original Title and audio track (no option to choose otherwise)
  • In OnlineVideos: original title and audio track as well

@Pablik fixed it!
Just let the autoupdater do its work and you'll be good

I can confirm that it works. The video I linked above now uses the original audio-track again. Thank you @doskabouter and @Pablik

The fix simply adds all possible audiotracks to the quality option list. To select different audio track, manual quality selection must be used. It can lead to large quality list but for now at least there is some option. I'll try to implement different approach (standart MP audio track selection during the playback) but it will take some time to rework the OV player to support multiple audio stream sources in the graph.
