It contains several subtitle tracks in different languages. This is now a soft subtitle and is flagged as the default and forced. You will see that the last track is our subtitle track. I can use the following command to merge the two together:- mkvmerge -o output.mkv -S "Iron Man.mkv" -language "0:eng" -track-name "0:Forced" -forced-track "0:yes" -default-track "0:yes" "forced.srt" Here is a breakdown of this mkvmerge commandĬhannel positions : Front: L C R, Side: L R, LFE So, I have the following two files - Iron Man.mkv and forced.srt.
