dvd to mkv but allow multiple sound/subtitle tracks

[chris789]

I'm volunteering for a church and they have dvd's recorded of there service with multiple audio tracks. Right Channel is English, Left is Japanese, Surround Left is Chinese, Surround Right is Cantonese. They want to create a computer file and I was thinking of MKV. Does anybody know a program that will allow me to select what audio channel to play. Right now when they play back they have a mixer where they can turn off and on which sound they want.

Thanks,
Chris

mpc-hc can do it. Just right click/audio/select the stream you want.

MKVToolnix should do everything you just mentioned and more.

MKVToolnix isn't a software player. The OP is looking for a way to select which audio and subtitle tracks play when the video is shown during particular services.

Sounds like he want's to MAKE a file which allows multiple audio tracks...

Or both ??

If he does want to make such a file from the original DVD, it'd probably be best to use MakeMKV (though that won't recompress anything). But most of his actual post sounds like he's just asking about whether or not individual audio channels can be selected when playing an MKV, rather than how to create such an MKV.

I use MKVmerge that comes in MKVToolnix and put my video then all of my audio tracks and mux it into MKV. then once the mkv is playing in windows media player you just right click the icon at the bottom right by the clock and choose the audio track you wanna play.

pretty much what darkdream said.
