I'm pretty sure I have posted this a few years ago but I cant find it so im trying again.
I would love the ability to change the video track the same way xbmc currently lets us change the audio track.
Having multiple video tracks is supported in file formats such as .mkv and it is a very nice way to include special or behind the scenes content which would not be scrapped otherwise with the main video file (currently other options are to scan them in as unique files and they will never be scrapped until the issue is dealt with manually. I have added hours worth of additional video tracks to movies in .mkv format and if I use an external player (such as vlc player) I can select which video track and audio track to play. So entire collections could be kept neatly in one file container in theory and in practice.
I really hope xbmc could support this sometime in the future, I think it would make a lot of the scrapping issues people have much easier and make xbmc a tiny bit more intuitive, at least for some when presented with the option.
