<div dir="ltr"><div style>I am having a problem with recordings and videos (recordings moved to the Videos storage group) from two of my OTA channels. Both channels have two audio streams in the recordings that I have trouble with, Audio #1 is 6 channels/Language=English and Audio #2 is 2 channels/Language=esl as reported by "mediainfo". I have the recording profiles set to run commercial flagging automatically and after manually verifying the cut points I schedule a mpeg2 --> mpeg2 lossless transcode to remove the commercials and other unwanted content. About half of the resulting recordings play with the wrong audio stream by default, checking "mediainfo" on these recordings show Audio #1 is 2 channel and Audio #2 is 6 channel and neither audio stream has a "Language" parameter. The recordings that play correctly by default have the audio streams in the same order as the untranscoded stream and they also have the "Language" parameter removed.</div>
<div style> </div><div style>On my Myth FEs I can change the audio stream through the menu which is just a small annoyance but on other devices it is not so easy and sometimes the recording is unplayable because their is no audio and no way to switch streams. A little searching and some trial and error lead me to Project-x. I can use projectx to remove the unwanted audio stream but the resulting "ts" file will not play on my FEs, it plays fine on VLC and my SageTV media server.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>So, my question, is there a reason why mythtranscode removes the the Language parameter from the audio streams and randomly switches the order the audio streams? I would really like to be able to watch the recordings on any of my players/devices without having to do additional processing and/or keep multiple different copies of my recordings.</div>
