About pymkv2

it's a fork of the pymkv project. pymkv2 is a Python 3 library for manipulating MKV files with mkvmerge. Constructing mkvmerge commands manually can quickly become confusing and complex. To remedy this, I 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!

Installation

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.

To install pymkv from PyPI, use the following command:

$ pip install pymkv2

You can also clone the repo and run the following command in the project root to install the source code as editable:

$ pip install -e .
