Dependencies

• MKVToolNix

Usage

0. Download MKVToolNix.
1. Open mkvtoolnix-gui.exe.
2. Add any of the MKV files to be processed (drag-and-drop works just fine).
3. Perform your changes within the GUI (disable tracks, rename tracks, set default tracks, etc.).
4. Go to Menu Bar > Multiplexer > Create option file, and save it as 'options.json' in the same directory where all MKV files to be processed are. You can then close the GUI.
5. Find the mkvmerge.exe executable within MKVToolNix and get its path (Shift + Right-Click > Copy as path from Windows File Explorer).
6. Download MkvtoolnixBatchTool.bat from this repository and put it in the directory where all MKV files and the JSON are.
7. Edit MkvtoolnixBatchTool.bat and replace "C:\...\mkvmerge.exe" with your path to mkvmerge.exe from step 5.
8. Run MkvtoolnixBatchTool.bat by double-clicking it.
9. Done!
