I made DivX AVI wit 2 audio streams and I have really strange problem: resulting AVI plays first audio stream one that is added as secondary with Nandub and vice versa.
In another word, first stream and second stream are changed in resulting AVI ! It is clearly visible from "properties" in Media Player.
BUT, the strangest thing is that this happens on WIN98 OSR - I tested the same AVI on WIN2000 and audio stream order was fine (first was firts and second was second).
I tried to make Graphedit files to prevent this mess and it works well except one thing - when I use graphedit file on Windows Media Player, it is impossible to use slider ?!!? It is disabled !?!!
Any solutions to these probems ?

You might want to try something like PowerDivX or BSPlayer. I believe it can switch which audio track is played. That way, even if the order of them is mixed up you can still pick the right one.

It is not problem in player ! I tested BS and RdLight and they work fine but problem is that they ut default stream first - but some configuration treat second stream as first which result with incorrect audio track on start.
Example: my divx have audio and commentary track. I put first stream audio (to be played by default when DivX file is loaded into BS, PowerDivX or Radlight player) and second commentary (to be played when user select it from player menu). On my PC everything is fine but on another one I tested, same player plays commentary track upon start (even Windows Media Player displays audio streams in wrong order !?!?) !
How to achieve to have first stream first on EVERY PC !
Anybody know what produce this problem ? Why some PCs exchange orded of audio streams withn AVI ?

This can be solved. In Graphedit right click on your audio renderer (the last box in the audio chain) and select "use clock" then save the graph again.

edit: because you have dual audio you have two audio renderers in your graph. Select "use clock" only in one of them, but it shouldn't matter which one you choose.

Ilready tired with clock and does not work - slider is still disabled :( .
In fact, it is enabled if I DON'T use clock but then playback is "defect" (player shows only one frame per second with frozen picture). So, I alredy tried with clock which produce with nice playing but disabled slider :(
I use Media Player 6.4 ...
