Title: Autoselect second audio stream during video playback
Post by: flydeep on September 17, 2013, 12:55:16 pm
Hi - I have few hundred video files with two audio streams. By default, MC plays back the first stream. Although I can manually change the audio track for every new file, is there a way I can tell MC to chose second audio track by default for a selected set of files?

If you set it for one file, it may work to copy the Playback Info tag from that file to the others.

Sounds like that this could do the job. A little more detail on how I actually implement this?

Thanks!

You can also configure auto-import to fill in the Playback Info tag with the copied tag info. This way all new files added to the same folder will have the second audio track selected.

I enabled the "Playback Info" column in the tagging pane. Could you please give a more detailed way of how do I "copy" this information to other files?
I right clicked the episode which shows the information and "Ctrl+C" (also seen in 'Edit Commands -> Copy')
After this I select few episodes which need the second stream to be selected and "Paste or Ctrl+V" didn't do anything. Is there some other way of doing this?


  • Play a file, select the second audio track.
  • Stop playback and enter the tagging view. (hit Alt+Enter)
  • Select a view which has the Playback Info tag visible. (upper left of the tagging pane)
  • Copy this information.
  • Select the other files, and paste into their Playback Info
