...i made this mistake (wrong audio language) when i launched the process this mornin (was late to go to work) & i'd like to know the way (if any) to avoid the long video encoding again.

i thought maybe i could use .d2s file to recover something but i don't really know how to use it.:confused:

cheers all

Hello!

You could try to

-start the conversion again (using another default output folder) to get your new encoded audio (make sure to choose the same bitrate for audio as before).

-as soon as video conversion starts, break the conversion.

-replace the audiofile of your first encode with your new audiofile

-recover your _first_ encode from muxing and cutting.

greets, winxi

I have used the very method winxi states with success several times.

Just make sure of the "use a different directory" part or you will overwrite important files.
