Changing default language in .avi files?

Feek · 09-08-2008, 18:27

Hello!

I have a number of .avi files which are dual language. English and Hungarian. I speak English, I don't speak Hungarian. On some of these .avi files the default language is Hungarian.

On the computer I can just select the correct language but I want to play them via the Xbox on the telly.

Does anyone know how I can change the default language, or even remove the one I don't want?

Learning Hungarian is _not_ an option!

Dunno, but if you still have a Windows box floating around somewhere, download VirtualDubMod, open the .avi file and remove/disable the offending audio stream.

Gonna say, worst case just re-encode them with only 1 language - viable if we're only talking a few files.

Mind you, if there's more than a few files you really should just learn Hungarian.
