jq: invalid JSON text passed to --argjson

[pitylee]

I think folder names with spaces or something will mess things up:

Hi , can you paste the output off mkvmerge -J "/mnt/user0/Media/Downloads/ash.downloader/Series/JU ON Origins/@Korean_Drama_English_JU_ON_Origins_S01E03_Episode_3_720p_NF_WEB.mkv"

Hi,

In the meantime I removed the spaces from paths to fix the issues.

clear && docker-compose run --rm srt bash -c "mkvmerge -J /mnt/user0/Media/Downloads/ash.downloader/Series/JU_ON_Origins/@Korean_Drama_English_JU_ON_Origins_S01E03_Episode_3_720p_NF_WEB.mkv"

mkvmerge failed with exit code 1

For some reason the type of srt could not be recognized.

I guess this is when it tries to insert the newly created srt into the mkv file.

[pulsejets]

does the srt file exsist : /mnt/user0/Media/Downloads/ash.downloader/Series/Lovestruck_in_the_City/Lovestruck_in_the_City_S01E12_1080p_NF_WEB_DL_ENG_KOR_DDP2_0_x264.hu.forced.srt' could not be recognized.

[pitylee]

Yes, right now it has been already created.

I run it with -o, but even if it doesn't exist, it won't attach it to the mkv.

I just removed every srt file in the folder:

could you try to remove the @ from filename!

[pitylee]

Tried, and I shortened the file name:

Similar to that:

cd /mnt/ssd/projects/media && docker-compose run --rm srt bash -c "mkvmerge -o "/media/Downloads/ash.downloader/Series/Extracurricular.2020/Extracurricular.2020.S01E02.720p.WEB.Rip.x264.mkv.tmp"  "/media/Downloads/ash.downloader/Series/Extracurricular.2020/Extracurricular.2020.S01E02.720p.WEB.Rip.x264.mkv" --language 0:"hun" "/media/Downloads/ash.downloader/Series/Extracurricular.2020/Extracurricular.2020.S01E02.720p.WEB.Rip.x264.hu.forced.srt""

The error existed because the start of .srt files looked like:

2

�FF1
first text

I had to convert to unicode and add a new 0 timestamp when it looked like this, because of this mkvmerge wouldn't recognize the file:

2
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:01,000

EZ FIKCI MŰ,

I created a pull request for this. #2
