Add external audio source / Two Blu Rays into one

Post by szybcia »

Hello,

I am absolutely new, I have not used the software yet, but I have searched through the message board and I have not found this information...

Is it possible to merge two blu rays into one? Not one after one, but rather having the same video, but merging the available audio tracks from both? And most probably, being able to adjust them so they're synced properly.

We are multilingual family and I would like to provide my kid with ONE disc with the selected movie that contains 3 (or even 4) audio tracks of our choice, along with same subtitles tracks. It is virtually impossible to buy blue rays with that selection of languages, so I thought I might create them myself... Maybe even could combine video and some audio otrack from Blu Ray, and additional audio track from DVD? (It would be cheaper option, than buying 2 blu ray copies of all movies I want).

I would appreciate answer if it can be done. Thanks.

I guess nevermind...

Googling even more (and I did quite some already before posting here) I have found this:

I guess it should do the trick then.

You can also do it with MKVtoolnix, which is probably easier.

If you know the synchronisation offsets you can define them in MKVtoolnix as well so you end up with the tracks still in sync after the merge.

I've done this on a couple of concert DVDs where they've had the multi-channel on one side and the stereo PCM track on the other. Even when the video was supposedly identical there were still differences in the video stream lengths (and hence the audio stream lengths) that required some manual fixing to get everything to sync properly.

@szybcia

Hi!

1) What audio languages are you thinking of adding?

2) Where do you think you'd be able to find these (perrfectly synched) "3 or 4" audio tracks of yiour choice?

You really ought to try reading what people have posted before posting your usual passive-aggressive suggestions implying nefarious behaviour and/or copyright infringement. It's getting old very quickly.

@paulster

I've read the OP's post quite carefully.

Rather than parsing my post, try reading my 1) and 2) together.

To me, it's quite evident that the OP is QUITE new to this and thinks ALL audiostream languages are readily available for ALL Blu-ray and/or DVDs titles...
