Select all english & spanish audio and subtitles by default?

Post by kwanbis »

Is it possible to make makemkv (GUI) select ALL and ONLY spanish and english audio and subtitle, forced and unforced?

Is it possible to do the same but ignoring all commentary audio an subs?

THANKS!

Tools->General, click "Expert mode".

Tools->Advanced, Default selection rule can be entered. I use one that selects ALL audio and subtitle tracks, but it would respond differently if I selected a preferred language on the Tools->Language tab:

Code: Select all

-sel:all,+sel:(favlang|nolang),-sel:(havemulti|havecore),-sel:mvcvideo,=100:all,-10:favlang

Thanks, but that is the exact default string, would that do what it want, select both spanish and english audio a subs (if possible ignoring commentary)?

It cannot ignore commentary cause those streams are not designated as such in authoring. Often you can recognize them by bein 2.0 audio but some of the audio description tracks for blind people are also 5.1 HD so you need to check them out manually.

Thanks, but somehow it does not works. Also, Mpeg4-MVC-3D streams are not selected. Any ideas?

Hello,

I have also bang my head recently with this, and i have some examples, hope this help :)

WARN: i don't use the PREFERED LANGUAGE option, i.e prefered language = none in the Preference.

You can also add at the end:

Code: Select all

+sel:attachment
to extract the .jpg picture included in some disk

To verify if it suit you, just load a movie and see which subtitles and audio tracks are selected or not, no need to convert to MKV.

All elements are detailed here: http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic ... 386#p17399


Code: Select all

Example 1:

audio:fra, anglais, pol, +others, -comment
sub: fra,fra forced,pol, pol forced, eng, eng forced,+others
-sel:all,+sel:subtitle,-100:(fra),-99:(forced*(fra)),-95:(pol),-94:(forced*(pol)),-90:(eng),-89:(forced*(eng)),+sel:audio,-sel:special,-100:(audio*(fra)),-95:(audio*(pol)),-90:(audio*(eng))


Example 2:
audio:ang,fra,+others,-comment
sub:fra, fra forced,ang, ang forced,+others
-sel:all,+sel:subtitle,-100:(fra),-99:(forced*(fra)),-95:(eng),-94:(forced*(eng)),+sel:audio,-sel:special,-100:(audio*(ang)),-95:(audio*(fra))


Example 3:

audio:fra, anglais, pol, -comment
sub: fra,fra forced, pol, pol forced, eng, eng forced
-sel:all,+sel:(subtitle*(fra|pol|eng|nolang)),-100:(fra),-99:(forced*(fra)),-95:(pol),-94:(forced*(pol)),-90:(eng),-89:(forced*(eng)),+sel:(audio*(fra|pol|eng|nolang)),-sel:special,-100:(audio*(fra)),-95:(audio*(pol)),-90:(audio*(eng))


Example 4:

audio:fra, anglais, pol, und, nolang, +others, -comment
sub: fra,fra forced, pol, pol forced, eng, eng forced, und, nolang, +others
-sel:all,+sel:(subtitle*(fra|pol|eng|und|subtitle|nolang)),-100:(fra),-99:(forced*(fra)),-95:(pol),-94:(forced*(pol)),-90:(eng),-89:(forced*(eng)),+sel:(audio*(fra|pol|eng|und|audio|nolang)),-sel:(havemulti|havecore),-sel:mvcvideo,-sel:special,-100:(audio*(fra)),-95:(audio*(pol)),-90:(audio*(eng))  

note: und stand for undetermined.

Thanks, I tried to follow your examples and the "guide" (to call it some way), but it is not working.

I tried something simple first:

-sel:all,+sel:(eng|esp|und|nolang),+sel:mvcvideo,+sel:attachment,-sel:(special)

This should, unselect all, then select all english, espanis, undefined and nolang tracks (subs and audio), select 3d vide, select attachment, and unselect all special tracks, but it doesn't works.

Any idea?

Don't use esp

Code: Select all

-sel:all,+sel:(eng|esp|und|nolang),+sel:mvcvideo,+sel:attachment,-sel:(special)
use spa instead:

Code: Select all

-sel:all,+sel:(eng|spa|und|nolang),+sel:mvcvideo,+sel:attachment,-sel:(special)
