selecting languages

Post by twa000 »

OK realise I must be doing something stupid but cannot get multiple languages to work.
I have set on expert mode and edited the user profile file, see below and saved it to the Makemkv data file in my user folder - but Makemkv only selects my favourite language (English) - any ideas???

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<profile>
<name lang="eng">My Profile</name>

<!-- Common MKV flags -->
<mkvSettings ignoreForcedSubtitlesFlag="true" />

<!-- Output formats currently supported by MakeMKV -->
<outputSettings name="discard" outputFormat="discard">
<description lang="eng">Discard track</description>
</outputSettings>

<outputSettings name="copy" outputFormat="directCopy">
<description lang="eng">Copy track as is</description>
</outputSettings>

<outputSettings name="lpcm" outputFormat="LPCM-raw">
<description lang="eng">Save as raw LPCM</description>
<channelOrder>L,R</channelOrder>
<byteOrder>big</byteOrder>
</outputSettings>

<outputSettings name="wavex" outputFormat="LPCM-wavex">
<description lang="eng">Save as LPCM in WAV container</description>
</outputSettings>

<!-- Default rule - copy as is -->
<trackSettings input="default">
<output outputSettingsName="copy"
defaultSelection="-all,+eng,+ger,+nolang,-havemulti,-havecore,+forced">
</output>
</trackSettings>

<!-- Save LPCM mono or stereo as raw LPCM -->
<trackSettings input="LPCM-stereo">
<output outputSettingsName="lpcm"
defaultSelection="-all,+eng,+ger,+nolang,-havemulti,-havecore,+forced">
</output>
</trackSettings>

<!-- Put multi-channel LPCM into WAVEX container-->
<trackSettings input="LPCM-multi">
<output outputSettingsName="wavex"
defaultSelection="-all,+eng,+ger,+nolang,-havemulti,-havecore,+forced">
</output>
</trackSettings>

As of today - Yes!
With 1.7.3 I can update directly the defaults in makemkv preferences/advanced tab, and it all works :)
- no need to have a user profile
