Description of the bug
Issue forwaded from Jellyfin Android TV Repo: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-androidtv/issues/4520
In a nutshell i have this issue where during playback i cant change the language of my m3u IPTV media. The audio streams come in english and spanish (0:1 and 0:2 in ffmpeg) and in most of the channels the main stream is spanish, but in a couple of select channels the main stream is english and cannot be changed. In the other media that is stored i can change the audio and subtitle streams without any issue, however in live tv the little "music note" option to change the audio stream is gone.
It simply seems there is no way to tell ffmpeg wich audio stream we can select in live tv, since the server does not probe the audio and subs streams like the other media since this is a live transmition,
More detailed information about this can be found in the submitted issue on the JF ATV repo above as well as the reason why we consider is a server issue.
Reproduction steps
What is the current bug behavior?
The server transcodes since mp2 m3u streams are unsuported in most clients (wich im fine for the most part). However it does not give the user the ability to select the audio or sub stream that is required. Making the audio option in the client completly dissapear.
What is the expected correct behavior?
The server being able to probe and list the available streams of the m3u live tv to the client and being able to choose them like with the other media.
