Muxes subtitles into Matroska files as a FUSE filesystem
mux2fs source mountpoint -o tempdir=<tempdir>,[options]
mux2fs --source source --target mountpoint --tempdir tempdir [options]
mux2fs takes the source directory and mirrors it under mountpoint, with a few changes. Files ending in .mkv are matched against files ending in .srt, and if they match, they are muxed using mkvmerge in tempdir.
Example:
| Source | Mount point | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Size | Name | Size |
| file1.mkv | 700 KiB | file1.mkv | 712 KiB |
| file1.eng.srt | 12 KiB | ||
| file2.mkv | 600 KiB | file2.mkv | 607 KiB |
| file2.srt | 7 KiB | ||
| file2.txt | 2 KiB | file2.txt | 2 KiB |

mux2fs should not be run as root. It should be mounted with the -o ro flag, as it will never support any write operations. It also should be mounted with the -o default_permissions flag, as it does no access or security checking.

Do not expect stellar performance, as performance is neither a goal, nor a strong consideration, of this project. Expect reading somewhere between 500-700 MB/s from a file in RAM. The performance should be good enough to stream media files from disk.
