Can someone remove the Russian voices?

[Nate Spidgewood]

With some help from a forum member who downloaded them for me, I just received some cartoon episodes that have been dubbed in Russia. However, I found out that the original English language track was kept behind the wisecracking Russian voices that have been inserted and that the audio has two channels for both tracks. I tried to get rid of the Russian voices using Audacity. Nothing works, as some parts of the English track were affected by the removal of the dub voices, making it barely listenable. Can someone do it for me? I'll invite you to my Dropbox that contains the episodes I got, so please send me a PM with your email address.

Not possible. As you discovered, both audios share the same frequencies. Trying to remove one also removes the other.

Usual in this type of video files include second audio stream in English only
check in VLC if this audio stream exist by selecting Audio -> Audio Track -> Track 2
you can also delete Track 1 with MKVToolNix

I checked the stream on VLC, but it only has one track unfortunately, with the original English dialogue/soundtrack still intact behind the louder Russian dub.

According to the user jman98, that's just the way the "typical" Russian dubs are done (sadly).

It's true. They're trying to get it out there before the pirates get to it.

I've heard that stuff. I don't know why anyone would sit through that.

Also, as mentioned above, you simply can't remove the Russian voices. Software doesn't know the difference between English and Russian.
