Do any of you have any software you can recommend for removing unwanted audio tracks and subtitles? Some of my shows and movies have multiple, and the Roku app does not follow the users set default language, leading to it playing the wrong track when autoplaying.

I've tried unmanic, but its unfortunately too heavy for my server, just slows everything to a crawl.

ffmpeg is the swiss army knife of video and audio

right? I know the unix philosophy disagrees, bur goddamn is it so convenient and versatile.

plus overpowered CLI tools like ffmpeg are the definitive case where CLI is definitely preferable to GUI by almost every metric. Why go hunting through a labyrinth of dropdowns and dialog boxes when I could just search the man page and type a few characters.
