Request - Chapters from text or xml

Post by iCode »

Would it be possible to add chapters from txt or xml files from sites such as chapterdb. I don't really want to name each chapter manually.

Thanks

Perhaps via mkvtoolnix.

This is something I'd like to see also. As a matter of fact, I was going to request this feature myself, I just hadn't gotten around to it. :)

With the added feature to name chapters in MakeMKV (which is greatly appreciated BTW), it's possible to rename chapters using chapter names from ChapterDB.org by copying and pasting the names into MakeMKV. However, it would be nice if MakeMKV could read an xml (or text) file output by ChapterDB software.

I've attached an xml file produced by ChapterDB as an example.

This will work with mkvtoolnix, but it would be much easier to use MakeMKV directly.
