# Other Optional useful tools
### H265 X265 Encode Entire media folders
I made this to reduce the size of my plex/emby library since allot of h264/x264 encoded videos was 30GB in size each by doing this i made 30gb videos 2gb in size and 2gb videos became 600mb it is a huge saving allowing me to add more media to the server.

### Disable Forced Subtitles
On plex / Emby i found videos trying to transcode because of forced subtitles flags even so i made this to fix that.
https://github.com/C0nw0nk/DisableForcedSubtitles
#### Extra Features of Disable Forced Subtitles
```
Option to Remove chapter markers
Option to Remove tags and global tags
```
### Remove Subtitles
This will remove specified codecs of subtitles from media folders you choose. For example IMAGE based subtitles xsub vobsubs will cause media to transcode when selected by removing these subtitles you can instead have plex emby jellyfin rely on using opensubtitles what are text based subtitiles for media that will not cause transcoding.

### TV Season Ordering
On plex / emby i had a issue with tv series being numbered from 1-100 and having no season or information so i moved them to season folders and made this to rename the videos in order.
