2 Audio Streams on AVI File Playing at the same time in WMC

Hello Gurus!

I have a problem playing particular avi files that have 2 audio streams.
Windows media player plays both at the same time and this results in two
different voice overs at the same time english/mandarine! I can play the
avi in VLC media player without the conflict. There must be a way of
disabling the second audio stream in wmp....? I cannot use other media
players because it is vista windows media center which doesn't seem to let
anything else be the default video player (i could be wrong about that
though).

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

This seems like a badly converted Video CD - is it? Get the content
provider to make a decent copy instead of abusing left and right channels.

VLC supporting that brokenness doesn't mean that it's a well encoded file.
