and german... obviously the less civilised nations
@george, if your asking would dual audio 1/6th be the best option, no, I really think its not really the way forward... its like those mkvs with 4 dubs and 18 subs muxed in, its a waste of bandwidth attaching a dub... i don't really see the point of muxing in dubs just because you can. Reminds me of those weird ass xfiles episodes with dubbed german as the primary channel and then original audio as the secondary channel... what a mess
They could have done with the bitrate spent on the german AC3 track, I ended up replacing all of them even after i'd muxed out the dubbing.
Wouldn't it be smarter to release it @ original audio and then dub as an mp3, and let the end user sort it out? You can use mkv to quickly mux everything together, or you can unmux the original audio and mux in the dub. You can even provide a bat file to switch out the original language and switch in the dubbing, i'm sure USB will be able to tell you how. That way you won't hinder your spread either by a locationalised rip.
Mediaplayer classic and co don't even need you to mux. Or if your concerned, then release it twice as original language and dubbed and cross reference the threads, you'll probably see which one really wins out in terms of sources in the end too
That way your not adding dubbing bloat for the smaller subset that actually prefer dubbing.

Filtering post using ffdshow isn't that big a deal, its better than an out of sync dub any day

Isn't most of your stuff is in lower quality anyway for this very reason? Its rare, hence why its raped by dubbing sometimes or its never been released on a DVD.
