Non-English Soundtrack

#1 Post by staudenmaier » Tue Feb 01, 2022 11:30 pm

I've ripped 10 or so BluRay discs and I am (nearly) 100% at it with MakeMKV. The one troublesome disk has 2 soundtracks, both in Spanish, and three subtitle tracks, all in English. After ripping this disk, I had NO soundtrack(s) at all, but I had complete choice of subtitles.

It looks like MakeMkv searches for an English soundtrack, then RIPs that soundtrack to the target. If it doesn't find one, you get a pretty quiet rip. I suggest giving the user complete choice of soundtracks, or, if it doesn't find an English track, take the default or #1 soundtrack.

Cheerio!

Do you have a preferred language set in Preferences->Language?

That will cause MakeMKV to ONLY select tracks with the matching language code. You can manually select them, but I find it easier to just leave the preferred language set to "None".
