Language profile selection not working anymore

Post by Roaster »

Hi all,

I have noticed that since one of the last versions, all language files are stored in the MKV file. I have created a personal profile that seems to be broken or does not work anymore.

I started makemkv from the command line in Linux:

Code: Select all

makemkvcon --decrypt --profile=/home/user/.MakeMKV/profile.xml --minlength=1200 mkv dev:/dev/sr0 all /home/user/Videos/

Code: Select all

<profileSettings
        app_DefaultSelectionString="-sel:all,+sel:(eng*audio),+sel:(ger*audio),+sel:(deu*audio),-sel:mvcvideo,+sel:(eng*subtitle),-sel:special,=100:all,-10:eng,-20:ger"
    />
How do I need to change to get it working again?

Thanks!
Woodstock

Unfortunately, you're relying on the select string in the profile, which hasn't been read in in since 1.14.0 was released.

Mike describes the change here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=18280

I do not remember seeing a way to set this for the command line. If you set it in the GUI, the command line will honor that program setting.
