A Python script for adding subtitles to all episodes in a season. The script can handle all file formats that MKVtoolNix supports. The scripts saves all files in the mkv format.
Python 3+
Mkvmerge from MKVtoolNix which can be downloaded here. If you are using a portable version you must use the -p flag to point to the folder where the mkvmerge file is located.
Clone the repository using
git clone https://github.com/Birath/subtitle-adder.git
or download it manually.
Place the video files from the season that you want to add subtitle to in one folder and your subtitle files in another folder. Make sure that all files are in the correct order when sorting alphabetically. Then run
python subtitle_adder.py /path/to/video-files /path/to/subtitle-files language-code name
If you want to set the output folder use the -of flag like this
python subtitle_adder.py /path/to/video-files /path/to/subtitle-files language-code name -of /path/to/output
To change the name of the output files, use the -o flag. Use *NUM* in place of the episode number when typing the name. Example:
python subtitle_adder.py video-files subtitle-files lang name -o "Game Of Thrones S01E*NUM*"
The full list of flags can be seen by running
python subtitle_adder.py -h
Which shows the following
usage: subtitle_adder.py [-h] [-o FILE] [-of FOLDER] [-d True/False]
[-f True/False] [-p PATH] [-ri True/False]
ep-folder sub-folder LANG NAME
Add subtitles to all episodes in a season
positional arguments:
ep-folder The folder where the video files are located
sub-folder The folder where the subtitle files are located
LANG The language code (e.g., eng, swe) of the subtitles
NAME The name of the subtitle track
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-o, --output FILE The file names of the outputs (default: Same as
input). Use *NUM* to insert the episode number in the
name (ex: Game Of Thrones S01E*NUM*)
-of, --output-folder FOLDER
The folder where the output is saved (default: Same as
script)
-d, --default True/False
If the subtitles should be default or not (default:
True)
-f, --forced True/False
If the subtitles should be forced or not (default:
False)
-p, --path PATH The path to mkvmerge (default: same directory as the
script)
-ri, --remove-input True/False
Removes all input files. This can not be reversed
(default: False)
python subtitle_adder.py "\Videos\Game Of Thrones S01" "\Videos\Game of Thrones S01 Subs" swe Swedish -p Programs\mkvtoolnix -of "\Videos\Game Of Thrones S01 Subbed" -o "Game of Thrones S01E*NUM*"
This will add Swedish subtitles to all episodes in the first season of Game Of Thrones and save them to the Game of Thrones S01 Subbed folder. It also points to location where the mkvmerge is located (Programs\mkvtoolnix) using the -p flag.
The python-mkv module is created by Nekmo. I've done some minor changes to it to support newer python versions, so the script is not compatible with the PyPi package.
