Newbie copy select streams

[PoulDK]

Hi,
I have spent approx 2 weeks on this, thinking I should be able to solve it, but... nop
soo... as a newbie I have this question, which I am sure sounds "simple" to most of you
I need to convert/copy .ts streams (NZ dvb recordings) which have 2 typicallities: multiple audio streams and time delayed audio; output can be either AVI or mpg (or .ts).
I understand it is al about demuxing, remuxing, upmuxing and anything related, but simple cant find the options to implictely delay a stream and do this is a single command.
So what I am seeking is the command string for a input.ts file, that select only the 1st stream (video) and the 3rd stream (AC3 audio), copies that to a single output file and add an delay to the stream.
Hope this sounds clear,and yes... I have spent just as much time on all kind of other tools (avidemux, virtualdub, etc, etc... in vane) but simply try to solve this with VLC, should be possible,
but my lack of experience in this area has lost me to get it solved
Thanks in advance for any advice
Rgrds Poul.

Have been watching this space for the past 2 weeks, elas without anyone responding;
so the conclusion would be that VLC is not able to selectively copy streams from 1 file to another!?

Have you tried MPEG Streamclip?

Yep, tried that, as many others, but streamclip requires a qt module that also messess up my vista installation, so abandoned that;
however.. I just got an advise on how to use ffmpeg, so give that another try.
thanks anyway for the suggestion.
