Title: Feature Request for MC28: Support for External Audio Track Playback
Post by: aproc on June 04, 2021, 11:17:57 am

Like MPC-HC supports playback of an external audio track (e.g. .mka file) for any video file or disc, I wish JRiver supported that too. There are several Blu Rays I have which don't have the local language (Hindi) dubbed audio track. These tracks can be downloaded/extracted from elsewhere. In MPC-HC, I can open the Index.bdmv of the Blu Ray/UHD Blu Ray and the local ripped audio track together, and then can switch between English and Hindi audio tracks easily.

I have requested for this feature previously too (across different versions). I keep my fingers crossed my request gets accepted for MC28 this time.

Just curious ... why not mux in additional audio into video file?

Well, I don't want to save every Blu Ray on my Hard Drive. Even when I rip a BluRay, I normally keep the BluRay folder structure.

I honestly believe that playback of external audio files is a very basic feature of any media player, and should be supported in JRiver.
