Introduction

This program helps to change audio and subtitle tracks of mkv files without rewriting the file. Only track properties will be updated.

Requirements

  • Java 11 or higher
  • mkvtoolnix installation

Execution

Minimal usage: java -jar mkvaudiosubtitlechanger.jar --library "X:/Files" --attribute-config eng:ger eng:OFF

Safe usage (best for testing before applying to whole library): java -jar mkvaudiosubtitlechanger.jar --library "X:/Files" --attribute-config eng:ger eng:OFF --safe-mode

Attribute-config must be entered in pairs: audio:subtitle; Example: jpn:eng. More about this topic here.
