Adding second audio stream to mpg

[Pontifexus]

Hi
I have a problem, maybe i'm just stupid but I have a mpg file (video and audio stream) now I want to add a second audio stream it is in mp2 format, but I don't know how to do it. Can someone tell me how to solve my problem?:)

Demux your mpg in TMPGenc, use the mpeg tools simple demultiplex option. Now you will have 1 video stream and 2 audio streams. You can multiplex all of these together using the multiplex option (not simple multiplex) in TMPGenc, but I personally think that TMPGenc multiplexing has compatibility problems.

I would get bbmpeg and use this to multiplex instead. It should be pretty straightforward on how to use it but the guides at www.doom9.net should walk you through it if you need help. Just add your 1 video stream and each audio stream and all will be multiplexed together.

Hey thank you it worked. By the way is it normal that you can't select the two audio strams when playing the mpg file from the hdd with PowerDVD or WinDVD, because i can't, they are only selectable in the hardware DVD player.:confused:

Pontifexus & Adam: I am trying to demux my mpg. files w/ 2 audio stream too. But what version of TMPG are you using b/c mine doesn't have the "Now you will have 1 video stream and 2 audio streams. You can multiplex all of these together using the multiplex option " I don't have those. Under "Simple De-Multiplex" I only have Input, Video output and Audio output. HELP ??

I think you have to us de-multiplex not simple de-multiplex.:)
I'm using version 2.54

Pontifexus : Under De-muliplex there's only an Input stream. After I input my mpg file then it just display info on it. Like "padding_stream and the video_stream, audio_stream. I still don't have that 1 video stream and 2 audio stream. I am really sorry. I don't get. Probably misunderstanding. Can u put down step by step for me pleast.. Thank you so much.

Yes that is normal. however you can access the second stream without burning the disc if you use a tool like EasyVCD to create an (S)VCD image, and then use deamon tools to mount the image file as a virtual CDROM. Of course, this is only guaranteed to work if the mpg is (S)VCD compatable. however a non-standard mpg may work (it depends on the player and the file). This is a good method to test an image before burning it.

You can get EasyVCD on the doom9's download page, I'm not sure if he has Deamon tools, but you can get them here (http://www.daemon-tools.com/daemon_tools.htm)

Coool thanks will try this next time.
@Ekin: It's right that you see the video and audio streams now just double klick on the streams you want to save to your hdd.
