We did not implemented that feature yet, since usually the client (VLC)
is able to select the audio (like in DVDs). That is why the vls sends
all the audio tracks.

Anyway, if you want select exactly what the VideoLAN server outputs (did
I understand well your issue ?), that should be a very easy hack in the
source code, since all the PID management facilities have already been
implemented.

Then, it is only a matter of PID filtering, and you will also have to
re-built the (Program Map Table) according to what you are sending.
