Manage default audio tracks

Edit and update the default audio track of a video from the dashboard

When you upload a video to the dashboard, JWP stores the original, primary audio as the default audio track. The default track will play when viewers watch the video on your site.

JWP enables you to edit and update the name, language, and language code of default audio tracks. Managing the metadata of the default audio tracks offers various benefits:

  • Clearly showing the language of the default audio track in the player
  • Ensuring that the default audio track has the correct language code for any custom player or app integrations
