[vlc-devel] Re: Should MRL's allow audio/subtitle specification?

[Derk-Jan Hartman]

There are menu's for this in almost all the interfaces.
It is indeed a little hard to find from the commandline, but i don't 
think that really matters.
In a playlist the playlistitem options can be used to set a spu channel.
But again, i don't think most people use it like that.
