Hi

I have a Sumvision cyclone 2 MKV player

Its really good, but one of my MKV files always starts with wrong audio (a commentary not the audio) (i have to manually select other audio) can i fix it?

I started googling but it was information overload.

Cheers

MkvMerge (part of the MkvToolnix package)allows you to load the mkv file.
Highlight the audio tracks in turn and set one as default and the other as 'No' then 'Start Muxing'.

mine was set on
default track flag -yes (this was the correct audio track)
default track flag -no (for the commentary - secondary audio track)

options for the default track flag are: yes /no /default

default set to 'yes' should be set to 'default'?

my brain hurts :(

I'm sure it will all make sense in a minute :)

Try 'Yes' or 'Default'.
When I test it on the PC I use VLC.
Some media players may be ignoring the flag.

Hi cheers

I might just switch it over manually when i play the file

But I know know how to examine the file and change it.

Thanks for all the help man :)

The player I'm using is the Sumvision Cyclone 2.

Its very cool, outside a few gripes.

There are a lot of fakes with odd remotes about (even on amazon)i got mine from Scan

anyway thanks for the help

if i run any more tests I'll post back
