Adding a fictitious track to a cell which has not an associated stream may be problematic when played back on some systems. I would delete the dir comments instead and let both PGCs have the same 2 languages.
Never been interested n what the directors have to comment, if their masterwork could not conveyed that message to me they they failed their job...

I don't use DVD's if the Bluray for a movie is available. This was a feature request and I will try it, maybe it works. Quote:
Often have the Extended Cut's other video scenes inside as the theatrical one. Alien 1 or Total Recall and so on, and I like it to have both version with diffrent contents. (and like I said, for Bluray an easy task) |

Here, I fully agree, I haven't been able to understand why the DVD causes so many troubles, and what hubblec4 is trying to do exactly. But it's not a reason for not trying to help him.

The fact that the "missing" audio stream is missing in the shortest version of the movie and present in the director's cut means (most probably) that all cells of the short version HAVE that audio stream. My hack consists only in making it visible. And that should work without problem, although, as I said, listening to that track when watching the short version doesn't make much sense.

My cE is a simple program and I'm not an expert in DVD authoring. I will use less external programs as possible to achieve what I want. I know it will be never 100% perfect but it is Ok for me.
PgcDemux and MKVToolNix (and BDSup2Sub) are the external programs and now I know this are not the best/easy tools for handle DVD material. Quote:

I work with Linux(total noob^^) too, so that cE runs there. But this is another story... |

My aim is to create a single mkv with both editions of the movie with "ordered chapters". Title 1 is fully used and from Title 2 only the VobID's which not inclued in Title 1 will be used (or vise versa). There is only one other program which can do such job: X1OneGenerator( but only Bluray). It exists no tool for DVD(at the moment). |

BTW, I wrote a plugin for PgcEdit that converts a single PGC to MKV. It is integrated in PgcEdit and has a GUI, so it is not really useful for you, but if you want, you can try it. I have never released it, but afaik it works correctly. Download it here, and extract the .tcl file in the plugins folder of PgcEdit. Relaunch PgcEdit. You should see a new Plugins -> PGC2MKV menu. Note that you need PgcDemux, MkvMerge, BDSup2Sub (java version) or BDSup2Dub++ (not really recommended) or SubtitleCreator, and optionally x264 if you want to re-encode the video. It doesn't handle multi-story titles, and if the PGC has several angles, you must select only one of them. In other words, it is unable to create a multi-edition MKV. Of course, you can select the audio and subtitle tracks you want to include in the final MKV. If you re-encode the video, you can crop and resize it to SAR 1:1 if you wish. Also, like PgcEdit, it doesn't work with an encrypted DVD, so you have to decrypt it to HDD first, or use AnyDVD to decrypt it on the fly. Although it cannot be integrated directly in your program, it may be a good tool to verify if you present the right streams to the user.

Yes my DVD2mkv is software written by me and I'm sure with all your help (and all the others) I'm able to code a multi-edition mkv generator for DVD. |

OK, I've compiled it, and you can download it here.
It's not the official release yet, but it should be OK, and certainly sufficient to run the PGC2MKV plugin. It will be released officially soon, and when v9.4 will be officially available, you should download it and replace this version, because I may have fixed some bugs or changed a few things. In the meantime, use the unofficial v9.4 with caution.
