# dvdsubconvert
|
|
|
|
A command-line tool built with Deno to extract, convert, and remux DVD subtitles
|
|
from MKV video files into SRT format, then combine them back into a new MKV
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Ensure the following tools are installed and available in your PATH:
|
|
|
|
- [MKVToolNix](https://mkvtoolnix.download/) (provides `mkvmerge` and
|
|
`mkvextract`)
|
|
- [FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/)
|
|
- [vobsub2srt](https://github.com/ruediger/VobSub2SRT) (for converting VobSub
|
|
subtitles to SRT)
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Clone the repository and ensure Deno is installed
|
|
([Deno installation guide](https://deno.land/manual/getting_started/installation)).
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Run the tool with a single MKV file as input:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
deno run --allow-run --allow-write --allow-read src/main.ts input.mkv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The tool will:
|
|
|
|
1. Analyze the MKV file for subtitle tracks.
|
|
2. Extract supported subtitle languages.
|
|
3. Convert VobSub subtitles to SRT format.
|
|
4. Remux the SRT subtitles into a new MKV file named `subit.mkv`.
|
|
|
|
Supported languages (ISO 639-1 codes):
|
|
|
|
- English (en)
|
|
- Finnish (fi)
|
|
|
|
## Output
|
|
|
|
- `subit.mkv`: The resulting MKV file with converted SRT subtitles.
|
|
- Temporary files (`.srt`, `.idx`, `.sub`) are cleaned up automatically.
