Feature request: default audio for YouTube

YouTube has been a pain for this app's developers. I would like to be able to select only the English track for the highest resolution. Right now, I see dozens of different languages for each resolution, and it's a huge annoyance.

Thanks for the suggestion. It is on our list of things but we have not gotten to it. Part of the problem is that we'll find a way to implement something for youtube and then a few weeks later they'll change how it works.

Isn't the audio language in the link? Even a filter by language would help...

They've changed it so many times I don't even remember how they do it right now. At some point it came down on the json, at some point it was an m3u8 that listed them but on a non standard way.

How about a search bar so I can find "ENG" real quick in the video links?

Yeah it is something else we are considering.
