what TDP is trying to explain is
an m3u8 can have multiple tracks but in jellyfin there is no way to have it pick 2 tracks at the same time
so the streams have to serve BOTH audio and video in the same track, not separate
with ffmpeg it would require 2 input file (-i) flags, jellyfin simply is not setup to do that
if you merge the m3u8 it's going to play each stream in sequence at best like a playlist, so you'll get video first then next track is audio, never at the same time
