Delete/Remove Subtitle [MKV]

[BLaKz]

Hello ,

how can we batch remove subtitle from a mkv video? i know we can use "mkvmerge", but is there any script ? like the one that batch remove "header compression" and "change aspect ratio "16:9 to 4:3 and vice versa". Btw the subtitle is softsub

Tried mkvcleaver? In the batch mode can you select to remove audio track 1/2 etc.


edit: Or it maybe just extracts the tracks....then I don't know any other method than making an own script.

I use ffmpeg to strip subs from mkv files as I prefer using external srt files which can be edited. For the batch files, I use something like the following which copies the video and audio but not the sub into a new mkv container file:

set in_file=D:\Videos\Myhomevideo.mkv
set outfile=D:\Videos\Myhomevideo-new.mkv
D:
cd "D:\Software\ffmpeg\ffmpeg_v1.1\bin"

ffmpeg -i "%in_file%" -y -vcodec copy -acodec copy -sn "%outfile%"
