Android : multiple audio tracks in a VideoView?

Question

I\'ve got some .MP4 video files that must be read in a VideoView in an Android activity. These videos include several audio tracks, with each one corresponding to a user languag

No 3rd party library required:

mVideoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse("")); // set video source    

mVideoView.setOnInfoListener(new MediaPlayer.OnInfoListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onInfo(MediaPlayer mp, int what, int extra) {
        MediaPlayer.TrackInfo[] trackInfoArray = mp.getTrackInfo();
        for (int i = 0; i < trackInfoArray.length; i++) {
            // you can switch out the language comparison logic to whatever works for you
            if (trackInfoArray[i].getTrackType() == MediaPlayer.TrackInfo.MEDIA_TRACK_TYPE_AUDIO
                && trackInfoArray[i].getLanguage().equals(Locale.getDefault().getISO3Language()) {
                mp.selectTrack(i);
                break;
            }
         }
         return true;
    }
});

As far as I can tell - audio tracks should be encoded in the 3-letter ISO 639-2 in order to be recognized correctly.
