mkvtoolnix section

[ablwr]

Something that came up during the most recent No Time To Wait conference was that it'd be useful to add a section of recipes for mkvtoolnix.

I support this idea. I would be interested to hear from others what commands they semi-regularly use or find useful, and we can implement them in a section ala imagemagick and flack.

That’s certainly useful. We actually work often with MKVToolNix.

Yeah, specifying colour properties is useful and also inserting chapter markers. Extracting attachments is also a bit awkward to figure out so having a handy recipe here could be useful for rawcooked users.

Yeah love all that. I’ve found mkvinfo (or mkvmerge -i; can’t remember!) an impt piece of this; you need to get correct track/attachment numbers before doing anything else. My inability to remember these commands proves the need for this. Great idea Ashley!

Thank Stephen McConnachie!

Yeah,these commands are difficult to remember for sure. I always have to look them up each time.

Good idea!
