Makemkvcon Understanding profiles

[brden]

Hello I am new to Makemkv and have a question about profiles. I am trying to understand how the audio selection works. I copied the "Perfect" profile from a forum post here and used it on my Blu Ray rip. It was pulling a French track and looking at it it should not have. I then changed the profile and still had the same problem. I then thought to try and learn how this works I would have it rip my Blu Ray without any audio so that I could piece it together and learn. I have been trying to get that to work and every time I rip it I still get all the audio tracks. I am going to add the profile code so you can see it and maybe give me some guidance on how this works.

The command for Makemkvcon I am using is the following "makemkvcon mkv --profile=/opt/arm/mysetting.mmcp.xml -r dev:/dev/sr0 all /home/arm/media/raw --minlength=600"
