* This interface is the base interface for both audio and subtitling language control. This interface should never be implemented in a control alone, but always either as audio or subtitling language control. If a language can not be selected because the user/application is not entitled to access it, the language is reset to that before the invocation of the method. If more than one stream with the same language exists, the behaviour of selectLanguage(String)is to select the first listed in the network signalling. NOTE:This is equivalent to item b under 11.4.2.3,"Default media player behaviour".
