What IS MergeKit?

Mergekit is all the 'extras' on a BR disc that, unless one downloads the
entire disc image, are the bits usually not included in the mkv or remux,
for whatever reasoning (or lack thereof) of the original poster.

You know, things like the chapters, commentaries, subtitles, full HD audio
streams (like DTS-HD/MA or Dolby TrueHD), or perhaps you have Dolby decoding
but not DTS, or the other way around.

So MergeKit gets you all those 'extras', again without spending the time and 
effort (and download blocks or caps) dealing with the full rip, simply to get
that one small part you feel is missing!

Integral to adding these bits to an mkvis mkvmerge, part of the MKVToolnix
package.  

Other s/w to process things like PGS subtitles (SRT conversion) can be easily
found on various websites.

Also, a Mediainfo text file, listing all the original BR parts, is included
with each MergeKit part.

MergeKits are divided into several parts, an example is below:

MOVIE.TITLE.MERGEKIT.A x264 Movie

MOVIE.TITLE.MERGEKIT.B All Audio Plus

MOVIE.TITLE.MERGEKIT.C All Extras

MOVIE.TITLE.MERGEKIT.D Complete BD25/50
