embedsrt

embed subtitle files into any video / audio files

embedsrt is a simple command line tool made with python to embed a subtitle file into any video or audio files.

Installation

If you don't have python on your Windows system you can get compiled version from this git release assets https://github.com/botbahlul/embedsrt/releases

Just extract those ffmpeg.exe and embedsrt.exe into a folder that has been added to PATH ENVIRONTMET for example in C:\Windows\system32

You can get latest version of ffmpeg from https://www.ffmpeg.org/

In Linux you have to install this script with python (version minimal 3.8 ) and install ffmpeg with your linux package manager for example in debian based linux distribution you can type :

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y ffmpeg

To install this embedsrt, just type :

pip install embedsrt

You can try to compile that embedsrt.py script in win/linux folder into a single executable file with pyinstaller by typing these :

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --onefile embedsrt.py

The executable compiled file will be placed by pyinstaller into dist subfolder of your current working folder, so you can just rename and put that compiled file into a folder that has been added to your PATH ENVIRONTMENT so you can execute it from anywhere

I was succesfuly compiled it in Windows 10 with pyinstaller-5.1 and Pyhton-3.10.4, and python-3.8.12 in Debian 9

Another alternative way to install this script with python is by cloning this git (or downloading this git as zip then extract it into a folder), and then just type :

pip install wheel
python setup.py build
python setup.py bdist_wheel

Then check the name of the whl file created in dist folder. In case the filename is embedsrt-0.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl then you can install that whl file with pip :

cd dist
pip install embedsrt-0.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl

You can also install this script (or any pip package) in ANDROID DEVICES via PYTHON package in TERMUX APP

https://github.com/termux/termux-app/releases/tag/v0.118.0

termux-setup-storage
pkg update -y
pkg install -y python
pkg install -y ffmpeg
pip install embedsrt
