ffmpeg - Remove video/audio streams by language
Use the map command to remove streams from media files.
- The stream index begins at 0, so, for example, to remove the first stream in the file you would use -map -0:0, to remove the second stream you'd use -map -0:1:
ffmpeg -i "input.mkv" -map 0 -map -0:1 -c copy "output.mkv"
NOTE: The minus sign in front of the -0:1 is what counts as a removal.
- To retain that map, remove that minus sign, so it becomes 0:1.
You can automate this process on your files using the following Tdarr Plugins:
To remove subtitle streams:
Tdarr_Plugin_x7ab_Remove_Subs
To remove audio streams based on language:
Tdarr_Plugin_MC93_Migz3CleanAudio
