ACIDRIP = 'director's comments' as audio along with the mp4 movie


Hi:

The last couple movies I've attempted to copy to CD with AcidRip - well, the video is fine, but I get the 'director's comments' instead of the movie soundtrack . . . so I'm listening to some blowhard pontificate about a movie I haven't seen. No fun.

Any idea how to fix this? It did not happen until the last two movies and I can't remember changing anything except, perhaps, d/l the latest updates from the Ubuntu gang

I am using 6.06 LTS with the latest updates.

Thanks.

director commentary is just another audio track, pick a different one. on a dvd there is no information about what the contents of a track is other than the language it is in, acidrip will pick (i think...) the first track of a given langauge, so if that's before the real audio track, it'll get that instead. you may need to hardcode a certain audio track number with the -aid option in the misc options box. check the mencoder manpage for details, as it's mencoder doing that, not acidrip.
