If you point Mediabunny directly at a media playlist, then the list of tracks is deduced by the tracks present in the first segment of the playlist.
### Track queries
Mediabunny offers an [`InputTrackQuery`](../api/InputTrackQuery) system to aid with finding tracks in complex many-track inputs such as the ones common with HLS.
Here's a holistic example that constructs an HLS quality ladder and then selects audio tracks based on language:
```ts
import { desc, prefer } from 'mediabunny';
// Get video tracks sorted by their resolution (highest first)
const videoTracks = await input.getVideoTracks({
sortBy: async track => [
desc(await track.getDisplayHeight()),
// Tracks with matching resolution are sorted by bitrate
desc(await track.getBitrate()),
],
// Filter out #EXT-X-I-FRAME-STREAM-INF tracks
filter: async track => !(await track.hasOnlyKeyPackets()),
});
const availableQualities = videoTracks.length;
// Get the best quality video track
const video = videoTracks[0];
// Get the audio track that accompanies this video track
const matchingAudioTrack = await video.getPrimaryPairableAudioTrack();
// Get all audio tracks
const availableAudioTracks = await video.getPairableAudioTracks();
const availableLanguages = await Promise.all(
availableAudioTracks.map(track => track.getLanguageCode()),
);
// Get the Spanish audio track
const matchingSpanishAudio = await video.getPrimaryPairableAudioTrack({
filter: async track => await track.getLanguageCode() === 'es',
});
// Get the Spanish audio track if one exists, otherwise get
// the next best thing
const matchingAudioPreferSpanish = await video.getPrimaryPairableAudioTrack({
sortBy: async track => prefer(await track.getLanguageCode() === 'es'),
});
```

You can lower `fac` to move playback closer to the live edge (1.5 works fine too), although you should not lower it below 1.
You can make `fac` larger to increase resilience against flaky internet or an unreliable media producer.

Then, add media data like normal. Since Mediabunny takes care of segmentation automatically, it is required to perform [Packet buffering](./writing-media-files#packet-buffering) internally. Therefore, try writing media data in a quasi-interleaved fashion to keep memory usage bounded.
### Multiple resolutions
A common pattern is to offer the same content in multiple resolutions and bitrates. This requires encoding the content multiple times, sometimes with additional downscaling. Mediabunny's [media sources](./media-sources) make this pattern a breeze.
Let's suppose we have a 1080p main video stream. We want to provide a 1080p, 720p, 480p, and 360p variant in the HLS playlist. For that, use this pattern:
```ts
const source1080p = new VideoSampleSource({
codec: 'avc',
bitrate: QUALITY_VERY_HIGH,
});
const source720p = new VideoSampleSource({
codec: 'avc',
bitrate: QUALITY_HIGH,
transform: {
// Frames will be automatically resized to 720p before being encoded
height: 720,
},
});
const source480p = new VideoSampleSource({
codec: 'avc',
bitrate: QUALITY_MEDIUM,
transform: {
height: 480,
},
});
const source360p = new VideoSampleSource({
codec: 'avc',
bitrate: QUALITY_LOW,
transform: {
height: 360,
},
});
const sources = [source1080p, source720p, source480p, source360p];
for (const source of sources) {
output.addVideoTrack(source);
}
await output.start();
// Then, when adding a new frame:
const sample = // ...
for (const source of sources) {
await source.add(sample);
}
```
You can extend this pattern to offer content in multiple codecs as well.
For the full list of transformation options, see [`VideoTransformOptions`](../api/VideoTransformOptions) and [`AudioTransformOptions`](../api/AudioTransformOptions).
### Track metadata
