Since version 5 Video Splitter was enhanced with such new features as the editing files with multiple subtitles and audio tracks therefore if you would like to save several audio or subtitles tracks you should select these streams for saving before the editing start.
 
Please find below the description of icons that are used for stream playback and edit selection.
 
Icon Description
 eye enable Shows that the stream is selected for the preview
 scissors enable Shows that the stream is selected for the editing
 eye disable Shows that the stream is not selected for the preview
 scissors disable Shows that the stream is not selected for the editing
 
If you would like to change the stream for preview then click on the icon with disabled eye to turn it on. After clicking it becomes enabled.
 
In the example depicted on the screenshots below we have changed the audio stream for preview from the first (MPEG1) to the second one (AC3) by clicking the disabled icon with an eye near the string with AC3 audio.

If you would like to change the stream for the editing or select additional stream for editing, then click on the icon with disabled scissors to make it turned on.
Please note, that you can select only one video track for editing and several audio or subtitle tracks for editing.
 
In the example depicted on the screenshot below we have clicked on the disabled icon with scissors and an eye near the FMP4 video track to change the video track from the first (DIVX) to the second one (FMP4) for the editing and preview.

So we have selected video track of FMP4 video for preview and editing and two audio tracks for editing. All these streams will be presented in the output video file. The second audio track with AC3 audio will be used on the Video Splitter preview.
 
After all changes with the stream selection were done, click the "OK" button to confirm your choice.  
 
Now you can mark fragments for saving and deleting and edit the file as usual.

Good luck with your editing projects!
