 I sometimes record from an ATSC station that has some narrative on the
 second audio track that is unrelated to the program.  When I do a lossless
 transcode, the track order becomes reversed, and one hears this narrative
 instead (so it is quite obvious that the wrong track is being played by
 default).

 For the original file, "Select Audio Track" from the OSD menu gives
 choices "1: English AC3 2ch" and "2: French AC3 2ch".  After transcoding,
 the options are "1: Undetermined AC3 2ch" and "2: Undetermined AC3 2ch".

 Here is what I think is the relevant portion of the mythtranscode output,
 applied to a 100MB sample of the original file:
