Searching for specific stream type

[klassikmann]

I'm using streams of the "ARD-Hörfunktransponder" provided by a SAT-receiver as MPEG2 transport streams (*.ts). Most of the streams contain one audio elementary stream of type MP2 only, but some of them - the classical music stations as BR-Klassik - contain AC3 (2CH, sometimes 6CH) besides MP2 additionally. For both types of streams mpd plus the activated ffmpeg plugin detects the MP2 stream only and plays it correctly, see verbose log:

Question:
Do you see any possibility to configure mpd such a way, that first priority is to play the AC3 stream (which is of a much better quality mostly) and MP2 as a fallback?

Example of a TS containing both MP2 and AC3: https://www.magentacloud.de/lnk/9eqAoyCK
