Hi! I need Help Again.. - FTP-Anime Forums

Hello Friends,

Thanks for your earlier replies. You should have let me thank you all for your effort before closing the thread

Anyways.. this is the problem I face. I have downloaded a Dual Audio series encoded in MKV + AC3 and there are around 13 episodes of the series. All the episodes have the same title, and moreever the title is just a name of channel and IRC server's address.

So, I want to know that wether if there is any chance of changing the title of the file? If yes how? I also want you guys to know that I dont wanna re-encode or do something to lose the quality to edit the title.

Please Help Me and thanks for your time.

P.S: I use Media Player Classic/VLC/Winamp, and Winamp and MPC doesnt show a field to edit, whereas VLC shows a field, but doesnt allow to edit.

cheers!

This might work. I use this to merge my subtitle files to avi files to make mkv.

mkvtoolnix -- Matroska tools for Linux/Unix and Windows

ooh thank you very much

..

I'm muxing them as I speak, but its creating a separate file after the process is finished, is there a loss in quality? I can't see it.. but is there any in the background?

Edit:

What do I do with the original Files and what do I do with the new files?

?

Not now.. Just a few posts more..

Oki, I use LIFO method:

You can delete the original, since you no longer need them

As for quality, if there is a direct stream copy(As in VirtualDub, 'cause I don't know mkvtoolnix very well, I used it only a few times), then there is no quality loss, else, there is some loss depending on settings of codec, resolution etc.

I usually keep the originals in case of SNAFUs. Burn it to DVD or store it on a thumbdrive.

rand0m · 02-07-2008, 04:54 AM

hmm... In that case I'll just go ahead and burn the muxed files..

will report back later.

Xyw13 · 02-07-2008, 08:24 AM

Huh, why to burn originals, if he wanted to mux them????

brokenhands · 02-07-2008, 09:07 AM

Ours is not to question why. Ours is to simply answer the question and....

Well come to think of it why did he want to mux?
