Multiple versions were tested, including a freshly built one from git 2e11e51 , version 2019.05.20.

At least for the avc1 and mp4a codecs, the selectors acodec and vcodec represent other additional information and it is currently not possible to specify a selector which selects 'any avc1' or 'any mp4a'. This feature would be to make such selection possible.

For example, a video can have formats avc1.64002a and avc1.4d4020 available for 1080p@60 and 720p@60. This feature would make those selectable by vcodec=avc1 or another selector to be revealed to the user.
