VCD with 2 audios

Hi you guys! How's it going? I have a question and I was wondering if you'd like to talk about it... Do you have any clues of how they make those VCDs with 2 audio files and you get to chose either one of them or even both at the same time (with funny results, I must admit, but still doable!)... Waiting to hear your ideas...

Thanks

 

VCD only supports One audio Track so the way they make it seem like there are 2 audio tracks they use "Dual Chanel" audio which is Basicly one audio track comeing out the Left speaker and one audio track comeing out the Right speaker and to select a language you either Pan the audio to the Left or pan it to the Right....
To create these audio files you have to use an audio editor to Mix each audio track into a Mono track and then Mix each mono track into a sterio track with One Language on the Left and one on the right.....

Cheers

 

Thanks mate, just what I needed!

 

and you'll get mono for each audio.

 

Hello again... Thank you both for taking interest in helping me... Now that I followed your advise and made my Greek and English audio files mono and then put one on the left and the other on the right channel (using Cool Edit Pro 2000)I have the wanted result of two audios playing together... I joinned the audio with video stream and... When I open my film with Media Player and I right-click to choose either channel... the option is not there!!! Is there something I'm not doing? Any ideas?

 

Well try encodeing the 2 Mono files as Dual Chanell and not sterio.....
I thought you were doing this for watching on your DVD Player because the Method I described won"t necessarilly work on your PC because on your PC you can"t really Pan the audio to one speaker or the other unless you go into your audio controll panel...
I don"t think you can select the audio chanells in media Player then again I don"t use media player so i don"t know all of it"s settings...

 

did both greek and english came up simultaneously ? did you noticed that one speaker is greek and the other is english ? if so go to the master volume of your solume control, in the system trey, and tune the balance to left or right. only one speaker though. i used media player classic, i'm not sure if it can do it, i'll check.
