Changes (by jyavenard):

  * severity:  medium => low
  * milestone:  unknown => 0.24


Comment:

 Note that there is no downmix done by ffmpeg for most codecs (AFAIK the
 only exception is for AC3/DD).

 So if you are playing 5.1 content on a stereo system, you *will* in most
 circumstances lose dialogues as they are on the centre channels.

 This isn't something new or problem introduced in 0.23.

 0.24 will include a downmixer along many audio improvements.

 If you want to hear the dialogues, either you wait for 0.24 or you will
 need to re-encode the audio track...
