Hello Juri,
I need to reactivate this thread because I need some more advice. I tried to set
the environment variable MPLAYER_AID="-aid 1" before starting VDR. I added the
variable to the CMDLINE variable in mplayer.sh. This way I can set a constant
audio track number which will always be played.
BUT, how can I change the env-variable from within VDR to switch audio tracks ?
As you already stated above a command in commands.conf doesn't work.

Any idea ?

Ondrej ....
