Problem Description

I like the default quality option but it's missing an audio version.
I would like to always use the worst audio quality by default and only increase manually if needed.

Proposed Solution

Add a default audio quality option

Alternatives Considered

Maybe map the default video quality option to an audio option. Like best video quality selects also the best audio quality by default.
While this is less flexible, it might save on GUI complexity and might be easier to implement.

Issue Labels

new optional setting

Additional Information

Currently if no good audio quality is needed, I have to manually select the worst audio manually every time a new video starts.

I was thinking it would require less data. I would like the possibility to defaultt to this, as more often than not the worst quality is good enough for me. (E.g. when listening to people talk).
I can see how people would dislike such a default when listening to music e.g. on good headphones. That's why I would like an option to set the default like there is for video quality.

This might only apply if Default Video Format is set to Audio Formats

The only thing we can provide is Highest and Lowest everything in between isnt possible due to the limitations of the player. Would something like that work out for you?

[ddogfoodd]

Just to make sure I understand: audio and video quality are linked and only highest and lowest works, not medium or some in between?

No only audio. Thats what this request is about.

and only highest and lowest works, not medium or some in between?

That is correct

[ddogfoodd]

Oh that's great, otherwise it would be somewhat of a downgrade.

That's still an enhancement since currently it's always best audio. It would also cover my use case. So if it isn't too much work or maintenance workload in the future, I would love an option like that.
