Is it possible to specify an external mp4a file as an audio track for an mp4 video file?
I have some Canadian videos in English which appear to have a separate external French audio track file. Both the video and audio files play on Kodi but I don't see a way to specify multiple input files like I can with VLC. TIA

No
But you can remux the video file with an extra audio track. mkvmerge.

I need this functionality to support 1080p youtube video playback in the addon I'm developing. Since Youtube has no audio in its 1080p video stream, I need to load the seperate audio-streams in to the video. Since it's streaming, it's not an option to remux.
So any answers on how yet? Or if this is something that will be implemented in the future?

Why can't you remux on the fly?

I'm trying out the DASH video playback in youtube. The dash video stream and audio stream I get from youtube-dl are in separate url's.
it's been 2 years since this post has been made.
Is it possible now, on krypton, to specify an audio stream to use together with the video?
I saw posts about inputstream.mpd but it us beyond my understanding.
I thought it be possible to craft an mpd file with the streams and have setResolvedUrl play it but no go.

Yeah this would be very useful. For instance I download some fan commentary for a movie and then I put it on USB stick and let's say I watch movie in Netflix addon and I choose other audio file.
