automate muxing of your video files
This script is for automating muxing of video and subtitle for series that you might want to upload. Script is interactive.
Requirements:
- Latest Python 3
- mkvmerge.exe
Usage:
Before running the script, edit the config.json file. It's pretty self-explanatory but here's the guide:
^ mkv is where you set the path for mkvmerge.exe - set it once and forget.
make sure to put double-slash and that your mkvmerge.exe is in a directory with no space
^ extension is the file extension of the video. separate audio and video is not supported
^ audio_language is the 2 to 4 letter country code for the audio. multiple audio not supported
^ prefix is your release prefix. the format is SERIES.NAME.YEAR.SEASON.E - yes, you should put E on the last part
^ suffix is your release suffix. the format is RESOLUTION.SOURCE.AUDIO_CODEC.VIDEO_CODEC.GROUP_NAME
Prepare your video and subtitle files:
^ The format for video is VIDEOepisodenumber so sample is evil20 (meaning episode 20 of the series named evil)
^ The format for subtitle is VIDEOepisodenumber.subtitle_language_code.extension so sample is evil20.th.srt
(meaning episode 20 of the series named evil. subtitle language is Thai and extension is srt)
For subtitle, only the following extensions are accepted: ass, ssa, vtt, srt
