Mpv: How to select a certain language track out of multiple possible?

Created on 21 Aug 2016  路  2Comments  路  Source: mpv-player/mpv

Assume I load a *.mkv or *.mp4 video file which contains multiple audio language tracks (e.g. english, german, spanish).

How do I select a non-default language track?

Use the # key to cycle through audio tracks. Default key bindings are documented here: https://mpv.io/manual/master/#keyboard-control

You can also specify a language on the command line (--alang=spa for Spanish) or in your config file (alang=spa,es,eng,en to select Spanish if available or English otherwise.)

And you can use the OSC to change audio tracks. Click on the speech-bubble icon to cycle tracks and shift-click it to see a list of all tracks.

I know this is old but, how do I move on that list? Up/Down buttons don't do it (they just seek in the video and ignore the opened list).
