Comment (by axeld):

 Replying to [comment:5 shinta]:
 > It is tiresome to merge audio/video manualy. On the other hand, there
 may be few people who has trouble by binding automatically. So, it's
 better to implement automatic binding mechanism.

 But that's not an argument to put this feature into the MediaPlayer -
 that's an argument to improve or create tools that assist you with this
 task. It's a feature that 99% of the users won't even notice, but that
 really is an argument to not put it in there in the first place. Due to
 asynchronous playback issues that cannot be solved within MediaPlayer
 without great effort, it is just a misplaced feature IMO.
