I know I can use
-s und,eng,en-US -a und,eng,en-US
to remove non English subtitles and audio tracks with MKVMerge. That works well when converting to MKV. Can use MKVPropEdit to remove that on an MKV file already?
Welcome!
No, mkvpropedit cannot remove tracks. The reason is simple: the data of all tracks is interleaved by their timestamps so that a player only has read read from start to finish once & will find all the data to play back simultaneously. This in turn means that removing a track isn’t really possible without rewriting the whole file anyway — which is basically remuxing. And that’s the job of mkvmerge, which can, of course, read existing Matroska files, too, not just produce them.
