Do you have a copy of the full source code? I've only downloaded the binary.
edit: Maybe you should use something like if (!gMKVHelper.IsOnWindows) in case someone is using this on another OS that is not Windows or Linux. Last edited by djcj; 26th September 2017 at 20:41. |

SourceForge is back online, so I commited the change to trunk and also released v2.0.0b with the aforementioned fix.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/gmk...0b.7z/download Hope this solves the problems on Linux! PS. In mono, the only reported OSes are Windows, Linux and Mac. Since no one has stepped up to test it on Mac and I don't have access to a Mac, gMKVExtractGUI officially supports Windows and Linux! |

gpower2,
Thanks for the new version. However.... gMKVExtractGUI v2.0 and 2.0b seem to be broken in respect to the Windows Explorer Right Click/SendTo menu. It results in a popup message saying an error has occurred (at least on XP). After closing the error message, gMKVExtractGUI opens but without opening the files. Right clicking on a stream in the list of files/streams doesn't actually select it. As an example, if you open two MKVs and the first MKV is highlighted in the list of files, right clicking on the second MKV and selecting "remove selected input file" removes the first file and not the second, because the second wasn't selected by right clicking on it. When right clicking to check or uncheck tracks, the track count seems counter-intuitive to me. If you have five MKVs open with an audio stream each and check them all, the right click menu shows (5/5) next to "check audio tracks" but (0/5) next to "uncheck audio tracks". To me it'd make more sense if the both displayed the number of currently checked tracks rather than what's checked in one instance and what's unchecked in the other.... because I'm easily confused. I'm not sure if it's by design or not, but dragging and dropping files is a "one chance" proposition. You can right click to "add files", then right click again to add some more, whereas dragging and dropping replaces the current files rather than adding more to the list. While it's nice having a right click menu to select all tracks of a certain type etc, I think it'd be handy to have buttons for each type of track on the main GUI somewhere so all video or all audio streams etc could be selected with a single click. Thanks again. |

Thanks for the confirmation!

I'll try to make right click to change the selected node like the left click. Quote:

I guess I could a question to the user, asking what she/he wants to do. Quote:
I think that the UI is already cluttered enough and adding more buttons to it would be too much. |

For the record, I didn't post details of the error message because on XP, there aren't any.
Where it says "Error setting TreeNode state" in SeeMoreDigital's screenshot it simply says "One or more errors occurred" on XP. Quote:
If the "check tracks" menu says two out of five tracks are checked, it's the same as three out of five tracks being unchecked, which is what the "uncheck tracks" menu would say. Maybe it's just my brain, but it's determined "Uncheck all tracks (3/5)" must mean there's currently three tracks checked, not two, because having the same information displayed in a different way is counter-intuitive to me. Quote:
As a user though, I think it'd be better if drag and drop appended files, because if you don't want them appended it's easy enough to clear the list of files first. Quote:
If it's about usability though, the number of times I'd click on a button to select all the audio streams compared to the number of times I'd change the location of MKVToolNix would easily be in the vicinity of 100,000:1. Anyway, thanks for the hard work. It's appreciated. Last edited by hello_hello; 28th September 2017 at 08:46. |

This may be a little pedantic but can you put a license/unlicense/readme file to your source tree or add a header to your source files to make it more clear that your project is released into the Public Domain?

It's worth to just rename the "Lock" checkbox to "Use source folder" and reverse its meaning, so that the greyed out path box would indeed mean it's not relevant while the checkbox is on. The current way is non-intuitive and non-standard for a regular windows UI control.

gpower2,
Is there something peculiar about eac3 I don't understand? gMKVExtractGUI extracts it with an mka extension. Shouldn't it have an eac3 extension? I noticed MKVCleaver extracts it with an "undefined" extension, which seems like a bit of a co-incidence in that both programs appear to be getting it wrong, but I thought I'd ask about it here first. MeGUI uses MKVExtract to extract it as eac3. Thanks. |

upcoming mkvextract command line interface changes
Hey,
FYI. I've just pushed a major change in how mkvextract's command line interface works. In short: you can now use all modes (tracks, timestamps, cues, tags, chapters…) at the same time, but the order of the arguments had to be changed. Here's the corresponding entry from NEWS.md: Quote:
As stated in the NEWS entry the old interface is still available and should still work (if it doesn't, please drop me a line; that would be unintentional but not surprising given how invasive those changes were). However, the old interface will be removed, even though only at the end of 2018, therefore changing the GUIs is probably a must. If you want to give it a spin right now, you can use the latest pre-builds for Windows.
