I have some .ogg (dual audio, etc) video files on my computer. When playing these videos on the computer, i can swtich between multiple languages that are encoded into the video. I was wondering, that if i made a DVD disk that can be played on a dvd burner (not on a computer), can i still swtich between languages, and enable subtitles if i want? thx for the info guys
 
The regular DVD format is not ogg, so your DVD player would have to be able to understand the ogg format to do that. I don't think there are all that many DVD players that include ogg encoding.

If you want to make a real DVD out of your file, I believe you have to convert your ogg file to avi and get a program to make a DVD-compatible format out of it.
If you look at the file structure of a DVD film, it has two main directories (it may have more). To create a fully compatible DVD, the program you use must recreate this structure with the information contained in your ogg file, and encode it correctly for it to be readable in a DVD player.

Unless you have the app to do it, I think what you want is not yet easy to do.

Pascal.
