First, I just want to thank any and all developers that made this happen! Thank you!

There isn't quite enough information encoded with respect to video and audio codecs. For instance, video codec 'hevc' doesn't state the color depth (8, 10, or 12 bits). Similarly, audio codec 'dca' could be (at least) 'DTS', 'DTS-HD MA', or 'DTS-HD HRA'.

I don't know anywhere near enough to suggest how to encode the additional information, but I'd like to be able to (programatically) decide which video encoder to use and which audio tracks I can ignore.

Does this sound reasonable for 1.1?
