Cinegy.TsMuxer

What is it?

TSMuxer is a simple tool, designed to help make testing easier for people with two streams they need to merge - for example, a main playout stream and a smaller subtitling stream.

It's not 'production ready' - it's really designed as a stand-in for a full quality muxer that would be used at a broadcast site for light duties in a lab or during demos or training.

However, it works - although at the moment it is young and has not spent long being tuned or having any features added to allow fine-grained controls.

How easy is it?

Well, we've added everything you need into a single teeny-tiny EXE again, which just depends on .NET 4.5. And then we gave it all a nice Apache license, so you can tinker and throw the tool wherever you need to on the planet.

Just run the EXE from inside a command-prompt, and the application will just run - although you might want to provide it with some arguments too.

Command line arguments:

Run with a --help argument, and you will get interactive help information like this:
