Unable to select a second audio track.

I honestly don't know if this is a limitation of my LG 42LM3450, or a limitation (or maybe that something can be solved) by Serviio.

I have an MKV file that has two AC3 audio tracks. Track 1 is Russian, and Track 2 is English. When I play it back through the TV via Serviio, it plays track 1, and I do not have an option that allows me to select track 2.

I've tried using MKVExtract and MKVMerge (using GUI's - I can't get my head around the command line) to demux the tracks, discard the Russian track and remux, but the audio/video goes badly out of sync.

Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.

if the file is delivered transcoded, it'll always pick the first track. If natively, it's up to the device to enable track switching

Could you not set in Serviio a preferred default language i.e English and then Serviio selects that track if multiple ?

This would be quite a neat feature...
