The upcoming version 1.3.18 of VDR will have a new remote control
button named "Audio", which brings up a menu that lists all the
available audio tracks, like

  Audio

  Analog (deu)
  Analog (eng)
  Dolby (deu)

which would be what a channel with two "normal" audio tracks (German
and English) and one Dolby Digital track might show.

The question I'm thinking about is how to name the first two tracks?
They're what is received under the "normal" audio PIDs, and which is
output through that analog audio connector of the full featured DVB
cards (hence "Analog"). However, some may argue that even these tracks
are broadcast in a digital way and might want them to be named
differently. In that case, a good suggestion would be appreciated...


Maybe the word "Stereo" is suitable ?
It's not allways 'stereo', can also be two-channel mono with
different language on right and left.

Maybe 'Sound'
