Episode advance carried live player state, so the viewer's choice only survived while every episode could serve it: one episode without the picked audio or subtitle fell back, and the fallback became the carry for the rest of the session. The screen now keeps the last explicit audio, subtitle, and secondary-subtitle choices for its lifetime; automatic outcomes never overwrite them, so the choice retries on every following episode and reattaches as soon as a catalog can serve it again. Audio catches up with the subtitle carry from #1785. The old matcher required raw language equality (a 'sv' pick never found a 'swe' row) and otherwise took the first same-language track, flipping a commentary or alternate-mix pick back to the main mix on every episode. Audio now uses the same evidence bands as subtitles: bridged language parity is authoritative, a unique title match vouches for untagged tracks, codec and channel-count parity only break ties, and an ambiguous catalog declines to the server's own choice instead of guessing. The synthesized source descriptor also prefers the row's own title over the display title that collapses to the bare language. Episode advance previously sent no audio hint to negotiation at all, so a transcode baked in the server's default audio no matter what was playing. Both backends now resolve the carried semantics against the new episode's streams: Jellyfin sends the resolved AudioStreamIndex, Plex feeds the transcode decision, an explicit per-part stream id always wins, and a failed match falls back to the server's pick. close #1785
