Description

### Impacted plugin

VideoPress

### What

Add an option to upload multiple audio tracks in different languages for a single video

### How

I got a user in chat today - who wanted to upload multiple audio tracks in different languages for a single video so that their viewers can choose their preferred language for the audio while viewing the video. As user shared this feature impacts their ability to effectively serve their customers across different regions and language preferences.

YouTube already has this featured available as seen here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/13338784?hl=en

Since we are marketing VideoPress as the best tool for videographers, creators, filmmakers, educators, and bloggers seeking to upload high-quality video, addition of this feature will be a great addition to our feature list.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the VideoPress upload experience and the linked YouTube reference for expected multiple-language audio behavior. Define the upload, storage, and viewer-selection scope before implementation; done means one video can carry multiple language tracks that viewers can choose while watching.
