Turn off audio description track - Steve-s - 2022-11-10
Hi All
I have an audio description track playing in some of the channels I am watching via my satellite receiver.
Apparently this is something that can be turned off (I find it annoying) but I have no idea whether it's a setting in KODI I have not come across yet or whether I should be looking for (and no doubt asking in) NextPVR (forum)
But if it is in Kodi, please could someone tell me where.
Thank you

Sounds like the channel is broadcasting an audio description track as well as the regular audio track and Kodi is defaulting to the description track.
You should be able to toggle this in the settings. See: https://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/Player/Language#Prefer_default_audio_streams
Whilst a video is playing you can see the audio tracks in the player OSD settings and manually switch them too. See: https://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/Player/Language#Prefer_default_audio_streams

@Dangelus
Thank you.
I'll have a look at those settings and come back if I have any more questions (hopefully there will not be any).
