Once you have downloaded the English audio (or ripped it yourself), you face the biggest hurdle: sync delay.
Because the English dub was mixed for an 87-minute movie, but the original Cantonese version runs 113 minutes, the audio will drift. You have two options:
- Find a pre-synced track: Fan-editors often provide a “sync offset” note (e.g., “Apply +2500ms delay”). Use MKVToolNix GUI to add the audio and set the delay.

For most fans, the easiest path is finding a “dual-audio MKV” where someone has already done the work. Search for “Shaolin Soccer 2001 1080p Dual-Audio [Eng-Cantonese].”
