MKV : multi-languages tags

[pokemaster974]

Hi, I would like to know if there is a possibility for MediaInfo to retrieve several strings of the same tag.

An example :

<Tags>
	<Tag>
		<Targets />
		<Simple>
			<Name>DESCRIPTION</Name>
			<String>Description en français</String>
			<TagLanguageIETF>fr</TagLanguageIETF>
			<TagLanguage>fre</TagLanguage>
		</Simple>
		<Simple>
			<Name>DESCRIPTION</Name>
			<String>Description in english</String>
			<TagLanguageIETF>en</TagLanguageIETF>
			<TagLanguage>eng</TagLanguage>
		</Simple>
	</Tag>
</Tags>

If I extract the tags with mkvproperedit and open the output xml I will retrieve the 2 DESCRIPTION so the tags are into the mkv but I think it's because there are the same name.

Regards.

We didn't implement the support of multilanguage in MKV :(, as we did for some other formats.
After development, the output would be:

Description                              : fr:Description en français / en:Description in english

On our todo-list.
Note: no ETA in free support.
