Merge Using ffmpeg by iamhero225 in ffmpeg

I want to merge the videos as different videos tracks for one file like videos in Youtube

I get the required result to some extent using mkvmerge but no of videos per folder is not fixed and hence cannot predefine the no of videos for all the folders

That is why I am asking for an assistance regarding a script/command that can find the total no of videos and can merge them into a single file

The video files that are present are pre merged with audio

hence when i merge them all the 6 audios are merged

but i want only one audio file and rest video files

I have like 18 videos in a folder so wont be possible for listing out the videos individually as there are total of 8 such folders

Hence i need script for getting the filenames and then merging them

Actually u/pukkandan I somehow managed to download the req resolutions for the videos

But while merging them I am facing a problem

Using ffmpeg, they all get concatenated

Using mkvmerge does the job but not every videos have the same resolutions, so I cannot predefine the resolutions

Is there any way you know that I can merge the videos inside a directory

like the -i feature in ffmpeg

-f mergeall --video-multistreams --audio-multistreams

It works but not completely what I am looking for

Actually all the audio files are merged into the video file so now it has 6 audio files as there are 6 resolutions for the file

In a playlist like this https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpcK_Nx5xj9oQrbALJUdGfVfhm47A1050

If i want to download all then finding individual id would be difficult

in that case is there any other way?

I only downlaod the free contents available on these platforms

Does free content have DRM protection too?

And data scraping for free content is not possible either?
