From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

file title is an option present on mkvtoolnix (92.0 eyeglow on debian 12.11)

I could single open every file, remove the file title and save, but that's gonna take ages. almost 100 files.

If you are talking about the mkv embedded title, try this:

find -type f -iname "*.mkv" | while read "i" ; do mkvpropedit "${i}" --edit info --set "title=" ; done

Just to be clear, this command will simply delete all the titles from all of the MKV files in that particular directory.

Current directory and all its subdirectories - to be exact :)

You can execute the find command only (with arguments, so until the pipe) to verify modified files beforehand.
