    I have some OGM files with two audio tracks and external SSA subtitles.

    I demuxed them with OGMdemuxer because Tsunami 4.2.3.193 only works with audio track 1, which in these files is English, I want track 2, Japanese. The OGM has to be muxed back with the video because Tsunami cannot work with OGG as a separate file, even though it can when it's muxed with video in MKV, OGM or AVI.

    I don't want to convert the audio to some other format because Tsunami can re-encode it to MP3 if it's muxed. (I dunno why they made it that way, if it can work with a stream type when muxed it *should* work with it not-muxed. Common sense? Not from Tsunami!)

    The output container can be OGM, MKV, or AVI or anything else Tsunami 4.2.3.193 can open.

    What's FAILED so far.

    VirtualDub- can't work with OGG

    VirtualDub MOD- allows OGG to be selected for audio but won't actually mux it, goes through the motions and just copies the video stream

    NanDub with OGG DLLs copied from OGMdemux- actually muxes but tags the audio as "Extensible" so it's not recognized by anything- using the OGG DLLs it comes with, it just crashes

    AVI-MUX GUI- allows the AVI, OGG and even SSA files to be dropped onto it, ignores the AVI and SAA and puts the OGG into an MKV

    If there's no way to simply mux these together, is there some program that can delete the first audio stream from the OGM or at least swap them so that Japanese is #1- so that Tsunami will use that stream?

    Once I get the source files the way I need, the rest is easy. Use Tsunami to convert them to 320x240 Divx AVI with MP3 audio and either have it do the hardsub or use AVI Recomp for hardsub if I want slightly nicer looking hardsubs.

    If you convert to uncompressed PCM there will be no loss. That is, converting OGG to PCM to MP3 is no different than converting OGG to MP3.

    If you really want to mux the OGG audio -- AviDemux might be able to do it.

    I got the latest Windows port of MKVtoolnix. That put them together in MKV files, which Tsunami is currently happily chewing on.

    Still stupid that it can only handle OGG audio if it's muxed with video. It's like crushing pills and mixing them with applesauce.
