Batch-Embedding SRT Subtitles

srt_batch_embedder is a deliberately small repository for one repetitive media task: embed SRT subtitle tracks into M4V video files in batches.

The repository does not provide a README beyond that purpose, a packaged command, or a locked environment. Treat it as a script to inspect and adapt to the filename conventions in your own directory rather than a polished end-user application. Before running it across a library, confirm how it pairs videos and subtitles, where it writes output, and whether the original files are preserved.

Subtitle embedding also depends on the target container and playback devices. A soft subtitle track remains selectable and does not alter the video frames, but its codec, language metadata, default disposition, and character encoding should be checked in the resulting file. Test one copied video first and inspect it with ffprobe and the players you actually use.

For a larger collection of maintained media operations, ExplicitUtil is the more developed successor in this public repository set.
