Write MKV tags without mkvpropedit as a dependence for AppImages
Write the MKV's tags without mkvpropedit, e.g. with a custom writer.
Why
Calling an external program is painful. If we want to make an AppImage this is much more painful...
How
- AppImage solution: include mkvpropedit in the AppImage, with that there is no longer a dependency for the AppImage.
- The do-it-yourself solution: the tags are at the end of the file so with a truncate and simple writes it should be feasible. Here are the specifications: mkv spec. See the section
Tagging
at the end of the table.
Which one: the AppImage solution will be implemented first because it's the simplest one.
