Multiple Default Languages

Post by Henning »

Hi,

as I ususally like to have both, german and english auio and subtitle tracks in my MKVs, I'd like to ask if there is (or could be) a feature that allows me initially to automatically select all corresponding tracks for both languages, instead of just the default.

What do you think?

Kind regards,

Henning

If you enable 'Expert mode' on the General preferences tab & restart MakeMKV, you will be able to enter a set of custom selection rules on the Advanced tab. Options detailed here:

ex (mine):

-sel:all,+sel:audio&(favlang),-sel:mvcvideo,+sel:subtitle&(favlang),=100:all,-10:favlang

You could change '+sel:audio&(favlang)' to '+sel:audio&(deu|eng)'' & play with the track weighting to suit your requirements?

Many thanks to all that helped in this.

I kinda feel like an idiot, as I should have taken more time to check on the documentation... :oops:

Kind regards,

Henning
