Audio source problem merging VOB's with Handbrake

Hello,
I've merged 5 .VOB files to an MP4 with handbrake, I can select the 2nd audio source (English) for the first file but audio reverts to source 1 (Italian) for the remaining 4. Other perameters such as 'gain' stick when selected but audio always defaults back to 1.

Anyone got a solution?
Other than learning Italian.

Thanks:sneaky:

Try mkvtoolnix you can get completely rid of the italian language or you can set english to be the main/first language.

As you suggest another program I take it there's no way to do this in Handbrake?
I'd prefer to avoid installing more stuff if possible.
 
Maybe you can by first converting the vobs separately and only selecting the sound you want to keep(on the sound tab go to add track->add all remaining tracks and select only the proper one) and then joining the converted files.
Maybe with avidemux or mkvtoolnix so you don't have to convert twice,they just join the files by copying the streams.


(both Mkvtoolnix and avidemux are "portable" you can just decompress them anywhere and they will run)

Great, thanks very much for that I'll look into both those as they're portable. Hopefully they can merge files with a selected sound track without converting each one first - I have quite a few to do.

Thanks again TheELF, much appriciated.
