Question

Default audio Change and to play on SONY 3D TV

Mar 6, 2018 8:47AM PST

I have sony 50W800D 3D TV.
I have downloaded mkv 3D movie file which has
- Audio 1 track is Format: Atmos / TrueHD Language: English Default : no.
- Audio 2 track is Format : Audio Coding 3 Language: French Default : Yes.

I am able to see both option of audio in VLC player but when i try to play in TV there is NO option to audio switch. It play only french.

I tried mkvtoolnix, jmkvproperedit and MPC-HC to chnage default language to english but even after that it play french on TV.

Can any help me in this matter to Play English audio on TV?
Thank you.

I hope you are not asking for pirated video help. All that aside, play it on a PC with players like VLC player and use the HDMI out from your PC to get to the TV.

VLC player not converting SBS or UP DOWN 3D videos into single FRAME to see with 3D glasses.

Size of my file 20GB.

Then ask the author to make a version with just what you want. It's not playable as it is now it seems.

Remember that by legit, you are not afraid to ask the author for a good version.

Does it specify support of the TrueHD audio codec?
If not you had better heed Bob’s advice or practice your francaise Happy

Better ask Sony to add an option to their 3D viewing app to choose another than the default language. Seems a quite reasonable request.
