Two Part TV Show Only Playing 2nd Part

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
7

MKV ToolNix will take MP4/M4V as an input. The output will be a MKV file.

That won’t be a problem for Plex. It will be a problem if you want to load the show into iTunes, which does not support MKV files…

Here’s two approaches to combine the files into one MP4/M4V file:

Approach #1: Use MKVToolNix & Subler

  1. Combine the files using MKVToolNix.
  2. Remux to a MP4/M4V using Subler.

Subler is Mac only. If you do not have access to a Mac, you can use ffmpeg to remux the file.

Approach #2: Re-rip, Combine, Transcode

  1. Rip the discs using MakeMKV
  2. Combine the MKVs using MKVToolNix
  3. Transcode using Handbrake or similar tools.
