When encoding the output (using x265) to MKV file, the metadata for the name of the audio tracks are not copied through from the source. For example the original file has 2 audio tracks titled: "TV Broadcast" and "98.5 Radio Broadcast". These labels are not seen in the output mkv file when viewed with either a player (I use MPC-HC 64) or opened with MKVToolNix GUI.
Currently I run a post process using MKVToolNix GUI to manually replace the lost title strings.
Can this be fixed? Perhaps I'm doing something wrong.
HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
HandBrake Nightly 20180909191723-09ed0b5-master (2018091201)
Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
OS: Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1
HandBrake Activity Log
You can see in the log file that handbrake sees the title strings. But it's not passing them to the output file.
