• nfo2mkv

A small script that (hopefully) does what it says on the tin: Transform metatdata from .NFO files to Matroska tags, both for Movies as well as TV shows.

Alpha Quality, here be dragons. Currently used with NFO files generated by [[https://www.tinymediamanager.org/][tinyMediaManager]].

** Usage

#+BEGIN_SRC text ./nfo2mkv.pl [--verbose] (--tvshow=tvshow.nfo --episode=Foo_SXXEYY.nfo | --movie=Movie.nfo) [--xml=mkvtags_out.xml] [--mkv=Foo_SXXEYY.mkv] --help Show this helpmessage --verbose Be verbose while processing data --tvshow=FILE Input: The NFO-file for the overall tv-shwo --episode=FILE Input: The NFO-file for the individual episode --movie=FILE Input: The NFO-file for the movie file --xml=FILE Output, optional: The Matroska tags in XML format --mkv=FILE Output, optional: Apply the tags to this file using mkvpropedit from the MKVToolnix suite

Please note that --movie as opposed to the pair --tvshow and --episode are mutually exclusive. --mkv expects mkvpropedit to be in your PATH #+END_SRC

The generated XML is compatible with =mkvpropedit --tags=, that is the following command can be used to apply the tags to an existing mkvfile.

#+BEGIN_SRC bash mkvpropedit $mkvfile --tags all:$XMLFIL #+END_SRC

** Dependencies

A perl interpreter, the libraries documented in the [[./cpanfile][cpanfile]] as well as mkvpropedit if the =--mkv= option is used.
