2 years ago I'll look into this if I get some free time this week, as for the MakeMKV dev docs they aren't the greatest and rather lacking. Their forums are a great place to look for more information though.

2 years ago Awesome, let me know if I could help with pseudocode or HTML work. Like I said, I might not be much help with the Python. :)
I've tried looking through their forums, I think it's moreso the args that are confusing, more than the docs themselves sometimes! lol

2 years ago Sorry, this was way on the back of things to do. But I have looked into this, wouldn't it be easier to use a MakeMKV profile and deselect the subs ?
/home/arm/.MakeMKV/settings.conf
app_DefaultSelectionString = "-sel:all,+sel:audio&(eng),-sel:(havemulti),-sel:mvcvideo,+sel:subtitle&(eng),-sel:special,=100:all,-10:eng"This is what it does split by the , in the string
-sel:all)+sel:audio&(eng))-sel:(havemulti))-sel:mvcvideo)+sel:subtitle&(eng))-sel:special)=100:all,-10:eng)You could do something like
app_DefaultSelectionString = "-sel:all,+sel:audio&(eng),-sel:(havemulti),-sel:mvcvideo,-sel:special,=100:all,-10:eng"
Inside /home/arm/.MakeMKV/settings.conf and that should remove all subtitles.
I'm still happy to look into adding MKVToolNix it's just that it might take a while. I have a bunch of bugs still to fix, so it's unlikely to be anytime soon.

2 years ago It definitely would!! This is really helpful. MakeMKV's documentation is a bear to get through, I never fully understood it. Again, this ROCKS.
I'll try all this and see how it goes! Thanks for taking the time to write this up.

This is what it does split by the , in the string
- deselect everything (-sel:all)
- select English audio (+sel:audio&(eng))
- deselect different angles (-sel:(havemulti))
- deselect 3d (-sel:mvcvideo)
- select English subtitles (+sel:subtitle&(eng))
- deselect special features (-sel:special)
- prioritize English (=100:all,-10:eng)
You could do something like
app_DefaultSelectionString = "-sel:all,+sel:audio&(eng),-sel:(havemulti),-sel:mvcvideo,-sel:special,=100:all,-10:eng"
Inside /home/arm/.MakeMKV/settings.conf and that should remove all subtitles.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A thought occurred to me. In my current setup, I use a Raspberry Pi 4 as a Plex Server. My clients (Roku, Chromecast) can't display PGS subs (subtitles files from BD discs), so that forces Plex to transcode, which the Pi can't do. I'm currently shuttling them to my main PC (which has a Ryzen 5600x vs. my ARM's current Intel 4590), so it's much faster at transcodes and anything else. But if I could just remux the files to remove the subtitle files (which MKVToolNix can do), that the ARM server can handle. Remuxing is far less intense (I think?) than transcoding, and storage isn't the issue in my setup at the moment.
Describe the solution you'd like Build in support for MKVToolNix CLI remuxing options, similar to current Handbrake CLI options present in ARM.
Describe alternatives you've considered Handbrake can do this as it's transcoding, which would be hard for the current ARM server I have. But, I suppose for most, if their machine is powerful enough, Handbrake can kill two birds with one stone.
Are you able to help code/implement this feature ? Possibly. I'm no Python coder but I've dabbled with MKVToolNix on my Pi before and it's not awfully difficult.
Additional context This would be moot if someone has a powerful machine for transcoding and remuxing - again, two birds - but if someone just wanted to remux to remove languages/subtitles from rips (and not deal with MakeMKV's rather....involved arguments), this could be a good option.
Perhaps I just need to really look into MakeMKV's documentation and try it. Or, perhaps this is an opportunity for a more fleshed out MakeMKV docs section here? With examples - that's the part I'm struggling with when reading MakeMKV's docs.
