Multiple Video Streams ind MKV

Postby JW 301 » 01 Jun 2009 20:47

Hello there,

I'm not quite sure if this is the right place for this, but as I only use Windows, I post it here.

I tried this with both 0.9.9 and 1.0.0 RC2 releases.

When playing a Matroska (MKV) file with multiple video streams, VLC shows both videos (the second one in another, additional window). Selecting the other video stream has no effect.

I think, VLC should only show one video stream, and then allow to select the other one (Media Player Classic Home Cinema does it this way)

So I think this is kind of a bug.

Thank you

I did not know this was a microsoft product :D

however, it is a good feature to allow multiple videos to be shown at the same time... but it should be possible do disable this... most of all by the matroska specification itself... which can set tracks as non-default
