Description Cyril Concolato 2014-10-30 21:52:26 UTC
The current text defines the mapping of track information to track language and label twice per media resource format: once for the texttracks and once for the audio/video tracks. Most of the time it is the same. This is error-prone. I suggest defining it once, unless it is different.

kind is always different. id, label and language are often the same, though in MPEG-2 label seems to be different depending on kind.

While I can see your point, I find it easier to read it this way. But if you can make it work, I'm not against it.
