I have a fully automated download process and using hazel to move movies to Plex.
Having spent 20+ hours to try and find a solution to the last step I am almost giving up.
What I have is lots of IMG and ISO files that are unrared. Theese I unpack with TheUnarchiver to get VIDEO_TS folders.
BUT “ how do I automate the process of making MKV:s of theese? I simply want a batch processor/script for MKV but cant find any that seems to work.
Found the script below, but cant understand how to use it with hazel “ and cant find a way to install MKV to make it command-line available (the commands on the page result in an error).
https://github.com/hcr/convertingMkvScript
ANY help most appriciated.
(I want all subtitles, all languages etc and preserve filename from folder so that Plex can identify the movie)
I am aware of that this might not be an applescript, but guess anyone here knows how to get this to work anyway
