when burning a movie in Shrink I sometimes see several AC3 channels of English. I uncheck the French or Spanish channels, but which English are necessary? For example: AC3 2-ch English
AC3 5.1-ch English
AC3 2-ch English (again)

These take up at least 250 MB each and I want to exclude all that are unecessary for the movie to have complete sound.

Usually you just take the 5.1. The first 2 channel would be the movie sound. After that it could be just music score or commentaries. Load up the movie in a software player to confirm.

yeah, just keep AC3 5.1-ch. Dont keep DTS unless you have a DTS enabled player and receiver or you will have no sound.
