 hello
 i need to create an MP4 file with an "disabled" audio track for playback
 on the AppleTV. it seems MP4 and MOV containers have the option to toggle
 whether tracks are enabled or disabled.

 i've searched the manpage and googled to no avail, it seems ffmpeg is
 currently missing this capability. only thing i found is someone else
 looking for this too ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14409194/how-to-
 disable-non-1st-audio-streams-tracks-in-ffmpeg-for-mp4-files ).

 please add the option to specify which tracks ( -map ) should be enabled
 or disabled when creating MP4 files.

 currently i have to post process the files created by ffmpeg using MP4Box
 ( http://blog.jdknight.me/2011/05/handbrake-
 playstation-3-and-51-surround.html ).

 thanks in advance for considering to implement this (or pointing me to the
 documentation if it really is already possible).
