Hi, I have a situation where I have a tv show in two different languages. One is original the other is dubbed. The dubbed episodes are cut differently than the original, so muxing the audio tracks together and use the original video track in an mkv file is impossible.

Is there a way to switch not only between the audio tracks in jellyfin but to also switch the video track with the audio? Like, I create an mkv file with both video and audio tracks. When I then switch the audio language in jellyfin it should also load the corresponding video track from the mkv file.

For example, VLC player can switch between the different video tracks.

It's the german version of an anime vs the original version with subtitles. The german version is about a minute shorter per episode.

But why is that? Which part is cut shorter?

Ask the studios that bought the rights to broadcast and dub the anime XD There are some scenes in the OG that drag on which they shortened in the dub.
