MKV : multi-languages tags #2099

Open pokemaster974 opened 2 months ago

pokemaster974 commented 2 months ago

Hi, I would like to know if there is a possibility for MediaInfo to retrieve several strings of the same tag.

An example :

<Tags>
    <Tag>
        <Targets />
        <Simple>
            <Name>DESCRIPTION</Name>
            <String>Description en français</String>
            <TagLanguageIETF>fr</TagLanguageIETF>
            <TagLanguage>fre</TagLanguage>
        </Simple>
        <Simple>
            <Name>DESCRIPTION</Name>
            <String>Description in english</String>
            <TagLanguageIETF>en</TagLanguageIETF>
            <TagLanguage>eng</TagLanguage>
        </Simple>
    </Tag>
</Tags>

If I extract the tags with mkvproperedit and open the output xml I will retrieve the 2 DESCRIPTION so the tags are into the mkv but I think it's because there are the same name.

Regards.

We didn't implement the support of multilanguage in MKV :(, as we did for some other formats. After development, the output would be:

Description                              : fr:Description en français / en:Description in english

On our todo-list. Note: no ETA in free support.
