Wrong language tag.

Post by Tolotos » Wed Dec 16, 2015 8:24 pm

Hi,
all my rips have the audio german language taged with 'deu' but it should be 'ger'.
Is this an error in MakeMKV or an issue of the Blu-rays?

"deu" is the official tag for German in language tracks.

Hi,

Than Emby (MediaBrowser), Kodi and mkvtoolnixgui are all wrong.
Emby and Kodi don't recognize the language and downloading the subtitles (*-ger.srt).
mkvtoolsnixgui corrects the "deu" entries to "ger" in the modifyheaders section automatically during save.

I found that both (deu and ger) are valid languages codes. is it possible to add a "mapping" configuration to makemkv so users can write the values there video software needs?
