Language Audio in separate Titles

#1 Post by gurgietrueshot » Fri Dec 08, 2017 4:34 pm

I have a Blu-Ray I'm trying to rip that is originally in Japanese but Dubbed in English. The Blu-Ray had both audio tracks but it appears that they are separated into 2 titles instead of both Auido tracks on one title. Is this a function of the way the Blu-Ray was created? I'm used to being able to have both the english and japanese audio in the same MKV.

I have seen this with some Disney/Studio Ghibli releases recently. I worked around it by ripping both, and using mkvmerge to merge the audio/subtitle tracks from both into one MKV file, which I then encoded with handbrake. What made it difficult was that there weren't just two playlists to chose from, but five, and they weren't the same length.

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try. It is a StudioGhibli film and for what ever reason both the Japanese and English titles also have French audio. Sounds like someone is trying to take a shortcut.
