How can I select one of four audio tracks of a DVD video?

Post by dr.onestone »

Hello,
my DVD contains a movie with 4 different language audio tracks.
If I display this video with Windows Media Player I can select the German language audio track.
If I transfer this video to VideoStudio V10plus via "adding DVD/DVD-VR to the timeline" the video is presented only in English language.
How can I refer to the German language audio track?
Many thanks for your help in advance.
Much regards
I am using Windows XP.
My Ulead VideoStudio is version 10.
My camcorder camera is Sony DCR DVD-505.
Thus - my source video is MPEG-2 stored on small DVD disks.

Guten Tag, Herr Doktor Einstein!

I am afraid that I don't think you can do it in Video Studio. But if anyone comes in with a suggestion how to do it, I too will be very interested.

For my own part, I use a dedicated mpeg editing program, Video ReDo, for this. Unfortunately, it is not freeware or even shareware. However, there is a trial version you can download at videoredo.com And I think the full program costs around US$50. I think another dedicated mpeg editing program, Womble, can also do it, but I have not tried it.

You could try ripping the dvd using DVD Shrink, which is a free download. If you choose the Reauthor button then you can import ony the soundtrack you require on to your hard drive. You can then import the DVD folder from your hard drive into Videostudio.

No need to select the re-author button - instead just deselect the unwanted audio tracks then proceed as suggested above.
