Generate Chapters From Text File

Automatically generates a working chapterx.xml file from a text file that you can use within MKVToolNix and sets the chapters language to English.

How To Use?

• Have Python installed and added to the PATH
• Place the script gen-chapters.py in a folder, and create an empty input.txt file.
• Copy paste the chapters from the mediainfo into input.txt.
• Run the script using python gen-chapters.py output.xml input.txt
• If your chapters mediainfo has chapter names and you want to copy them, you can add the argument -names to the end of the command. This will tell the script to copy the chapter names as it is.
