| Posted: February 4, 2009 7:11 AM | | | | I'm a bit confused about why the Commentary feature even exists.
I mean, for the audio-tracks, we have the Commentary"language" - isn't that enough to indicate a commentary track? Or is the Commentary in the Features section a whole different kind of Commentary?
If it is the same, wouldn't it be a whole lot easier (and less confusing) if the Commentary feature was automatically set if/when there is a Commentary audiotrack available in the profile? | | | The future is here. It's just not widely distributed yet. (William Gibson) |

And I believe the check box for commentaries has been there since before there was an option for a commentary audiotrack. | | | Karsten DVD Collectors Online

It IS a feature isn't it, Rander. Then we can further define it in the Audio section, I look forward to someday being able to define it further in the Features section.
