    Question Issues with "Audio Description" tracks in encoded mp4 files for son in hospital

    Hiya.

    I am using my new spangly i5 4670K from Scan to convert/re-encode TV programs so my son has something to watch in hospital (No TV's in area where he is - nor reliable wifi )

    I have my Satellite receiver (Vu+ Duo) recording programs he likes, and I use the new 4670K kit to convert/re-encode from the mega large .TS format on the Sat box to smaller .mp4 files using the fantastic Handbrake program.
    I then copy these onto micro SD cards that he can put in his Sony PSP MSPro adapter and play them.
    This works fine - and has for a while.

    BUT, for some recordings (an example being Futurama on Pick TV, which he loves) the recordings come with the "Audio Description"/AD audio stream in them.
    On the Sat box you can select the non AD audio stream to play, but there is no way I can see to prevent the AD stream getting on the recorded .TS file

    There is no way to stop these playing on the PSP from what I have seen.

    I also can't seem to be able to find the right setting on Handbrake to only rip the non-AD stream despite me playing with the audio options.

    Any help appreciated.

    Delete the audio track you don't want, from the list.
