OK, I've searched and searched and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this...
I've been trying to shrink my ISOs for my BR movies on my server. Some like Avatar are extremely complicated, some should be simple. Right now I'm trying to figure out the simple ones. For example, Star Trek - The Motion Picture. Simple format, it has a specific PSG track for the forced subtitles. How in the heck can I force the ISO to load that track by default when playing the disk...?
I tried BDedit and I can not find any options to force a specific subtitle track... Though that software is quite a bit cryptic so maybe I just haven't found it. I can make the basic ISO any number of ways but...
I have tons of BRs and 12 TB of storage. Still I can't load them all. Saving 5-20G per movie is absolutely worth it. I have some just pulled down to .m2ts files but I'm missing the forced subtitles (and PDVD 10 even won't let you select subtitle tracks from the .m2ts, and making an iso out of it, I still have to select a track. And I still have no solution for Avatar type movies yet...).
Any help? I'm guessing it has to do (at least for those with a special track for forced titles) with the .mpls file but...
EDIT: To clarify many confusions: I'm ideally looking for a tool which lets me DIRECTLY edit the bdmv/mpls files to configure them up properly. NOT some do-it-all tool. OR also useful would be what-is-where and then I can hex-edit the file or what not. Ideally, that's what I'm looking for. Or a tool that will setup only those files... I don't want it to remaster or mux or anything else. I have the file structure and all of the original files. I just want to know how to edit these files to make them dance to my tune.
