I also had some strange things with this settings, and as my movies are all french or english audio only, I changed now to: "fre:fre|f,eng,fre" and it works better.
So the "*" doesn't seemed to work properly, or maybe it works now with latest SAF version but I have not tested it.
Of course if the audio or subtitles are not tagged correctly, it can not work properly.

OK. My movies can be in many different languages so I kinda needed to use a wildcard, but if * is going to turn on subs even when the language is english, I guess that's better than not having the subs turn on when needed, so I'll just put up with turning them off manually if necessary.

    SAF 6.12 asks the question if you want to downmix to stereo, but the question is asked in polish or somthing, even when dutch is selected during install.

    Yes, this question has been added to SAF in last release. I don't have translation for this text yet.

    This is a complex question, you should open a topic separately.
    It really depends on what you want to achieve.... In term of hardware, the CPU is important too.

    And problem solving, and questions about MediaPortal crash with copy protected DVD

    Problem:
    Some heavily copy-protected DVD as "Lauf um dein Leben" MediaPortal crash. The same problem occurs on the play with Media Player Classic. See MediaPortal LOG files.

    CODEC used:
    Codec: SAF 6 Old version and the latest version of SAF version 6 9:11

    Codec settings:
    DVD / disc (as recommended by Homberg) Image SAF 6 codec settings:
    DVD Video Decoder: FFDSHOW video decoder
    DVD Audio Decoder: Audio decoder LAV

    solution:
    After searching for a solution to why the Media Player Classic crashes, I found the following working solution. Change the MPEG2 codec setting.
    http://blog.frz.cc/2008/digitaler-kopierschutz-dvds
    I have used this solution on the FFDSHOW settings (ffdshow video codec setting) and MediaPortal not'll crash.
    Change the MPEG2 decoder "libmpeg2" to "libavcodec" (see Picture)

    Another solution is in the MediaPortal configuration use for the DVD video and DVD Audio decoder : Microsoft DTV-DVD set of video decoder in order.

    My questions are:
    1. If the change of settings for the MPEG2 codec FFdshow on libavcodec another negative effect.
    2. Is it possible to "libmepg2" renew codec
    3. Is there another solution to the problem
    4. Why Homberg used at all FFDSHOW for DVD playback. I have dropt Frames with Video DVD.

    I have test the SAF 6.12 and its work again.

    I have another littel Problem with SAF 6 Konfiguration.
    I Think its not a Problem from SAF, its a Problem from my Settings?
    I have with LAV and SAF 6.12 only 2 Channel Audio Output on 5.1 Relatek analog Soundsystem with TS Files

    My Setting: Realtek Soundkonfiguration 7.1 (I have 5 Speaker 2 Front, 2 Back 1 Center and 1 Subwoofer)
    The Setting for Mediaportal Codec Konfiguration an LAV see the Pictures.

    I have a small task:

    I connect a sterosystem vie Speaker connection and a AV Receiver via optical spdif. How can I setup that when switching from optical spdif (with passthrough 5.1) to speaker with stereo 2.0 it also switches the output format (so - to be more precise - setup format according to device)?

    THX in advance!

    Hi.
    I think there is some kind of audio renderer changer plugin for MePo.
