Hi all, (forgive my english...it's not my native language! =)

I just used DVD Decrypter to rip one of my dvd. The problem is that on this DVD I have only one English audio track. I have a French AC3 track that I would like to add to this DVD.

Is there an easy and/or fast way of doing so... (like with IFOEdit or something else) or I need to convert .vob's to M2V, then mux back the 2 audio tracks with IFOEdit and burn. (By doing so I would be losing the menu...or not?)

Well to make things clearer, how can I add a new audio track to an already authored DVD by keeping the most of it. (I don't care not having the choice to choose the languages in the menu, but at least keep the menu as it is but being able to change the audio with my DVD controller would be cool)

I hope I'm clear enough to be understand! :D

Thanks to all of you,

MindOverMatter

Hi,

yes you have to demux your streams and remux them afterwards with the extra audio stream. No you won't loose your menu (but obviously the extra audio trcak won't be selectable from the menu only by remote).

Just follow any of the dvdbackup guides on doom9 and in the reauthoring process don't forget to throw in your extra audio track (and use the copy audio and subpic tables option in ifoupdate)
