Hi
Has anybody had success applying tags to an mkv file?
In this example here:- http://www.matroska.org/technical/sp...ple-video.html
It shows how to add a simple tag using an xml file.
And some more information here:-http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/...kvmerge.1.html
For example:-
This is the xml file for Dune:-
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE Tags SYSTEM "matroskatags.dtd">
<Tags>
<!-- movie -->
<Tag>
<Targets>
<TargetTypeValue>50</TargetTypeValue>
</Targets>
<Simple>
<Name>TITLE</Name>
<String>Dune</String>
</Simple>
<Simple>
<Name>DIRECTOR</Name>
<String>David Lynch</String>
</Simple>
<Simple>
<Name>DATE_RELEASED</Name>
<String>1984</String>
</Simple>
<Simple>
<Name>COMMENT</Name>
<String>Great sci-fi movie</String>
</Simple>
</Tag>
</Tags>
So that file is saved as dune.xml
Then you have your movie foo.mkv
And use a command like this:-
Code:
mkvmerge -o output.mkv --global-tags dune.xml foo.mkv
That's supposed to tag the output.mkv file with the information.
But I can't seem to get it to work.
When it's finished I would expect to be able to read the tags using mediainfo or with VLC's > Tools > Media information.
I've also tried tagging using the mkvmergeGUI, by adding the xml file in Global > Tag file
Doesn't seem to work either.
