[QUOTE="el Filou, post: 1227892, member: 78516"] Hello again. After your response, I modified MediaPortal.xml to manually add 'qad' to the preferred languages, and it was fine for a moment as the problem was only occuring on one channel. The only annoyance is that as qad is not in the official list of supported language codes, MP's config tool removed it every time I opened it to change some other config setting, but I could live with it. However, I know have more problems: my TV provider has started doing this with other channels I regularly watch, and it always advertises all the audio streams even if not present: - some channels advertise French/German/English/qad, but only French/German is present in the stream during some programs. - some channels advertise French/English, but only French is present in the stream during some programs. - some channels advertise French/English/qad, but only qad is present in the stream during some programs. - some channels advertise English/French, but only English is present in the stream during some programs. I think you're starting to get a picture of where I'm going: I'm now unable to watch many channels with MP without exiting, going to TV languages screen in the config tool, changing the priority list to put the language present in the stream of the channel I want to watch on top, and then opening MP again, and I have to do that again each time I want to switch channels. And for those channels where I need 'qad', I additionally need to manually edit MediaPortal.xml every time. :( I've tried opening support tickets with my provider, they said TV on PC is unsupported (of course... :rolleyes:), and that nobody using a CI card with their TV's integrated tuner has reported any problems, so in other words I'm stuck. One way I can work around this issue is to enable "Use Video codecs when playing .ts", which uses LAV Splitter which somehow manages to work around this issue, but I lose the ability to watch TV live or to watch a program that is currently recording. Is there really nothing that can be done in TSReader to work around this? In TS Doctor, when I open such a recording, it says: Would it be possible to make TSReader to try to switch to the next advertised/preferred audio stream if the chosen one is not found in the TS, and so on until it finds one actually present? Maybe only as a debug option not enabled by default? That would be awesome of you. If that's not possible, could you at least open a JIRA to add 'qad' and 'qaa' to the list of supported lanuage codes? At least that way I wouldn't need to manually edit MediaPortal.xml each time. Thanks a lot for your help again. [/QUOTE]
