Tdarr Ability to use MKVmerge for Remuxing instead of Ffmpeg

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am experiencing an issue with certain HVEC MP4 files stuttering in plex, but not when playing in VLC as described here. Using MKVmerge to remux the files to MKV fixes them (this powershell script), but if I remux using Tdarr's method of Ffmpeg, the stuttering remains.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be able to use MKVmerge to remux. I'm not sure if I can call a shell command in a custom plugin and I imagine this would be a solution. Otherwise if Tdarr had a native way of using MKVmerge, I'd love to use that.

Describe alternatives you've considered As mentioned above a plugin might be able to call a shell command, at the moment I'm finding it hard to get an answer to that.

Can add a plugin to run binaries, will just need to reuse the code from here: https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr_Plugins/blob/master/FlowPluginsTs/CommunityFlowPlugins/tools/runMkvPropEdit/1.0.0/index.ts

I would also love to see it. I'd like to use mkvmerge with custom commands and last week I was trying to find a way to do so which was not that successful.

I've created this flow plugin here Run CLI to allow running of other CLIs like mkvmerge: https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr_Plugins/pull/630

Hope that helps.
