# Start by importing with MakeMKV | |
# Make sure to at least pick the "forced" subtitles - these are usually helpful ones for us dummies who don't speak more than one language | |
# Subtitles are weird and need to be burned in, so you have to later select them, and only picking the one you need makes this easier. | |
# Update the tools | |
gem update video_transcoding | |
brew upgrade | |
# Get the command by checking for cropping first | |
detect-crop <filename> | |
# Outputs something like: | |
# $ transcode-video --crop 140:140:0:0 <filename> | |
# Update this to capture the subtitles (not included by default) | |
# add --burn-subtitle <track #> where <track #> can be found in VLC, but should be 1 if you only ripped that one | |
# Update this further to put the files someplace else, as the default naming scheme collides with an existing mkv | |
# add --output <new filepath> | |
# Resulting command: | |
transcode-video --crop 140:140:0:0 --burn-subtitle 2 allied/Allied_t00.mkv --output Allied2016.mkv |
