Batch merging MKV and SRT

[Fransman6080]

Hello,

i am completely new to this.

I have got 200+ season of series of which i want to merge the SRT with the MKV

Can anybody help me on this?

I want to merge all MKV files (also setting the language to English) with the SRT files (setting language to Dutch)

Is there a simple way of merging these files season by season while making the proper language settings?

Doing it episode by episode will take me ages since there are over 4500 episodes.
I started out with creating 2 folders on my desktop (one called "to merge", the other "merged" thinking this maybe would prove easier

Thanks guys!

Hi,

I had the same problem as yourself and put together the below PowerShell Script to achieve the batch muxing of subtitles.

#Batch Merge Subtitles with MKVMerge - Iain McCain

#Set MKVMerge.exe Path
$MKVMerge = 'C:\Program Files\MKVToolNix\mkvmerge.exe'
#Set Target
$Directory = "Z:\Films\"
#Set Subtitle Extension
$SubExtension = 'eng.srt'

#Process
$Subs = Get-ChildItem $Directory -Filter "*.$SubExtension" -Recurse | % { $_.FullName } | Sort-Object
$Count = $Subs.count
Write-Host "$Count MKV's to be processed."

Foreach ($Sub in $Subs)
{
#Get File Name
$FormatName = $Sub.ToString()
$Name = $FormatName.TrimEnd(".$SubExtension")
$MKV = $Name + '.mkv'

#Set Output File Name
$Output = $Name + '___MERGED' + '.mkv'

#Execute
& $MKVMerge -o "$Output" --default-track "0" --language "0:eng" "$Sub" "$MKV"

#Clean Up
Remove-Item $MKV
Remove-Item $Sub
Rename-Item $Output -NewName $MKV
}
