After adding the first video, the remaining videos will have to be appended to it.
There’s also a portable version should you not want to use the installable one. It’s available for almost all platforms out there including Windows, macOS, Linux and BSD. I recommend remuxing those downloaded MP4's and WebM's from YouTube using FFmpeg first to the same format, then tag those instead by Mp3tag and other taggers. Even by extracting the tags to an external XML file, it is different.Īlso if I may add, for anybody. Then I use MKVToolNix for final remuxing.įor example, I have finished tagging an MKV file with Mp3tag and the other apps, but after I remuxed it with FFmpeg, the tags displayed in MediaInfo is different from what I originally intended. I use FFmpeg to remux media files in the beginning, like after I have downloaded YouTube videos. I highly recommend using MKVToolNix's CLI exe's instead of FFmpeg's because in my experience, FFmpeg removes or rearranges existing tags, or adds some unnecessary tags like stats and duration. This should remove the header title, by simply putting no value after the equal sign.įor %Z in ("*.mkv") do mkvpropedit.exe "%Z" -edit info -set title= You can use MKVToolNix's very own CLI exe's to batch remove the Header tags (like the Header's Title counterpart) fast and easily without remuxing.įor example, if I have a few MKV's inside a particular folder, I use something like below. Quite far back in time, I used to create external XML files then put them inside using MVKToolNix. Then when viewed with MediaInfo using its HTML View, the titles are separated with a slash. In my personal practice, I just put the same value to both the Header and XML titles. As a user of Mp3tag, I think this should be the appearance, pattern, or arrangement of an external XML tag file that we should follow to prevent unwanted or conflicting display of XML tags. For example, tag an MKV file with Mp3tag with as many tags as you could, then save, then open that same MKV file into chapterEditor to see the difference. Mp3tag as main tagger, and most importantly as recursive batch tagger.ĬhapterEditor as secondary, but more complex. JMkpropedit can handle multiple files too.
The Header tags I believe are invented first, but limited only to a number of set tags, unlike XML which can have as many and as unofficially. I think MPC-HC and MPC-BE favor the XML titles over the Header ones. Depends on the media player on which title it would prefer to display. In my experience, an MKV or any Matroska file can have both. That title is probably the Header tag title, not the XML tag title.
