pymkv is a Python wrapper for mkvmerge and other tools in the MKVToolNix suite. It provides support for muxing, splitting, linking, chapters, tags, and attachments through the use of mkvmerge.
pymkv is a Python 3 library for manipulating MKV files with mkvmerge. Constructing mkvmerge commands manually can quickly become confusing and complex. To remedy this, sheldonkwoodward decided to write this library to make mkvmerge more scriptable and easier to use. Please open new issues for any bugs you find, support is greatly appreciated!
Adapted to work on Linux systems properly. Added track delay feature and changed up some other things.
For example, if no title is specified in MKVFile(), there won't be one in the output file, unlike the original project which would keep the title of the pre-existing file if it existed. Now in order to keep the title, you need to specify title="keep".
mkvmerge must be installed on your computer, it is needed to process files when creating MKV objects. It is also recommended to add it to your $PATH variable but a different path can be manually specified. mkvmerge can be found and downloaded from here or from most package managers.
