The KreaTV platform can automatically select the audio track based on several selection strategies. One strategy is to prioritize the selection of a track based on language. Other strategies prioritize based on the audio format, or based on the type.

This object is a prioritized, case-insensitive list defining the auto-selection strategy priorities. The first entry in the list has a greater weight and the following entries have lower weights.
