Current release: 1.8.1; see this post (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=906663#post906663).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey guys,

I've finally released a new version of mkvtoolnix, 1.8.0. It caontains the usual stuff -- couple of bug fixes, library compatibility fixes, enhancements, some minor new features.

Here's my usual link list:

http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/
the source code:
http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/sources/mkvtoolnix-1.8.0.tar.bz2
Unicode enabled binaries for Windows 2000/XP and newer:

Binaries for various other Linux distributions are available from the program's home page.

Here's the ChangeLog since 1.7.0 for those who want the details regarding mkvtoolnix' changes:

---------------------------------------------
2006-11-10 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* Released v1.8.0.
* mkvmerge: Changed the CodecID for AAC audio tracks to "A_AAC" by default. The CodecPrivate contains the same initialization data that are stored in the ESDS in MP4 files for AAC tracks. The old CodecIDs (e.g. "A_AAC/MPEG4/SBR") can be turned on again with "--engage old_aac_codecid".

2006-11-08 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: Reworked the "input tab" and split track options into two sub-pages. Also added an input for the "stereo mode" parameter for video tracks.

2006-11-07 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for the "stereo mode" flag for video tracks.

2006-11-03 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: For MP4 files with certain CTTS contents mkvmerge would use negative timecodes for a couple of frames. Those frames were dropped and mkvmerge often ended up eating huge amounts of memory and crashing afterwards.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: AAC-in-MP4 with the LC profile was sometimes misdetected as having a SBR extension and an output sampling frequency of 96000 Hz. Fixes Anthill bug 210.

2006-10-26 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: Added support for API changes in the upcoming FLAC library v1.1.3. Patch by Josh Coalson (see AUTHORS).

2006-09-29 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed the random number generation on Windows. On Windows 9x/ME mkvmerge would simply hang. On newer versions the function was accessing invalid memory and was generally buggy.

2006-09-26 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: SSA/ASS subtitles with comments before the "[script info]" line were not identified.

2006-09-25 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Made the checks for SRT timecodes a bit less strict (e.g. allow fewer than three digits after the comma).

2006-07-19 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Comments in OGM files were not handled if mkvmerge was called in identification mode. One obvious result was that neither the track language nor the file title was imported into mmg.

2006-06-16 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: bug fix: The "stretch" input box was not accepting the same syntax that mkvmerge's "--sync" parameter accepts.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: PCM audio data with 4 bits per Sample caused mkvmerge to allocate all available memory. Patch by Robert Millan (see AUTHORS).

2006-06-15 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: bug fix: Mixed up two tool tips on the "settings" tab.

2006-06-02 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* Build system: bug fix: Moved some @...@ style variables from configure.in to Makefile.in where they belong (very recent autoconf versions were choking on those).

2006-06-01 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: new feature: Added an option for always using simple blocks.
* mmg: new feature: Pre-set the "delay" input field for audio tracks if the file name contains something like "DELAY XX" where XX is a number.

2006-05-24 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: enchancement: After adding files with drag&drop the next "open file" dialog will start in the directory the last file came from.

2006-05-23 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: mkvmerge will no longer create empty files (meaning neither input files nor things like chapters etc have been added).
---------------------------------------------

Have a nice weekend.

Mosu

Thanks :) but :
* mmg: new feature: Pre-set the "delay" input field for audio tracks if the file name contains something like "DELAY XX" where XX is a number.
Not a good idea if it's encoded audio, since, if for example i encode ac3 to aac with belight, delay is corrected during encoding, so there is'nt delay in the file any more ^^

PS : your sign is out of date :D

[Mosu]

Then why does blight sill put the delay in the file name? :)

Anyway, I'll leave this feature in and correct my sig. Thanks for noticing :)

[LeMoi]

Can't you make it an option to set please ? ;) (because BeLight keeps original filename and just changes extension ;))

[Mosu]

Yeah sure, I'll do that.

Here you go: http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/win32/pre/mkvtoolnix-unicode-1.8.0-build20061111-1.rar

[LeMoi]

Thanks and sorry for bothering ^^

BTW, i use DVDDecrypter to extract audio tracks, it's a french version, so it doesn't add "Delay xx" suffi but "Delai xx", so finally i'm not concerned ^^

[joseph5]

Thanks, but the following bug is still present in this version:

You need to update the unicode runtime .rar on your website. I downloaded 1.80 build20061111-1.rar because I do not want to use the installer, if not necessary. When I ran the program, it said it is missing wxbase26u_gcc_custom.dll.

[foxyshadis]

That's dumb, maybe I'll ask kurt if he can post a version that doesn't do that. It'd compile one but my last attempt at delphi met with disaster. >.>

Hey, startup for unicode is fast again. =D

Something I meant to ask a bit back, I guess it's too late for this release: Is it possible to get something similar to split, but only extracting a fraction of the video? Whenever split is used, you always have to extract the entire track to several files, even if you only want the first 3 minutes or 3 minutes in the very middle.

I don't provide separate runtime archives anymore. You'll have to use the installer at least once. The existing runtime archives are only compatible with up to 1.7.0 and will be removed in the future.

Sure that's possible, but not trivial to implement. I don't want to turn mkvmerge into a huge video processing application. So not in the near future, sorry.

If I remember correctly you can unpack NSIS installer with 7zip without installing. Just use installer as archive.

As I already posted in the YAMB thread, I have a mov file (Spiederman 3 Trailer) and I cannot remux it to a mkv file.

I get the following log with mkvmerge:
mkvmerge v1.8.0 ('Wise Up') built on Nov 10 2006 19:40:19

And I get as status and progress:
mkvmerge FAILED with a return code of -1073741819

The debug window shows the following:

Where can I get that mov file?

[Mosu]

Never mind. I found the file and fixed the issue in http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/win32/pre/mkvtoolnix-unicode-1.8.0-build20061112-2.rar

[Rumbah]

Thank you very much for the fast help.
Now I can watch the trailer over and over without Quicktime ;) .

[Mosu]

Hey, startup for unicode is fast again. =D

Yeah. I've changed from wxWidgets 2.5.3 to 2.6.3, and they seem to have fixed the layout algorithm again.

[klinika]

Looking better and better :) There's a minor bug of disappearing aspect ratio still hanging about: type it in, click on some other track, and click on the video track again and it's gone..

[Mosu]

Several people have reported this, but I simply cannot reproduce it.

Which OS are you using? Which mkvtoolnix package (Unicode or non-Unicode)? Which version?

[Mosu]

Ah wait, I just succeeded. Will investigate.

[LeMoi]

The AAC-is-sbr button is not on main screen for aac audio, we have to go to format specific options to enable it each time (it's annoying when you have 5 aac audio tracks ^^). I know it's format specific, but since mmg still doesn't detect it automatically, we have to set it for each track ?!

[Audionut]

Thanks.

[chros]

Sure that's possible, but not trivial to implement. I don't want to turn mkvmerge into a huge video processing application. So not in the near future, sorry.
I'm sadly here that too ... :(
It doesn't need to be complex, but like in Yamb/mp4box ...
I/we hope you'll change your mind ... :)

Or is there any app which can do that?

Thanks

[Mosu]

The AAC-is-sbr button is not on main screen for aac audio, we have to go to format specific options to enable it each time (it's annoying when you have 5 aac audio tracks ^^).

mmg does not switch the format tag when you add a new track. So add a file, go to the "format specific options" tab, hit "AAC is SBR", add another track, hit "AAC is SBR" etc. Not more work than before.

I know it's format specific, but since mmg still doesn't detect it automatically, we have to set it for each track ?!

mkvmerge cannot reliably detect if raw AAC (meaning ADTS AAC files) is SBR without decoding AAC. And mkvmerge will never depend on libfaad. That being said, there's at least ONE thing I can probably do, and that is enable "AAC is SBR" by default if mkvmerge detects that the sample rate is <= 24000 as someone told me a while ago that this is a sure indication of SBR.

That would be a good idea ^^

I may have fixed this. Please test this build and tell me how well it works: http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/win32/pre/mkvtoolnix-unicode-1.8.0-build20061114-2.rar

I'm not at home atm, but what I was able to test it, it does seem to work fine now. Nice, thanks!

[LeMoi]

I added subtitles tracks to append, removed them, clicked on start muxing and mmg automatically crashed

Hmm, I cannot reproduce it. Can you please describe every step you did until it crashed?

Thanks.

Thanks, now it doesn't crash.

[LeMoi]

When using command line, progress doesn't go to 100%, it stops to 50% (that means 25% is actually 50%, 50% is 100%, etc.)

[LeMoi]

Hmm, I cannot reproduce it. Can you please describe every step you did until it crashed?

Thanks.

Sorry i couldn't reproduce the bug, so i presume it's OK ^^

[Mosu]

I'm guessing that you've appended a file and then deactivated the tracks from that file... Or something like that. Can you give me some more details, please?

[LeMoi]

Yes, i've added one video file, one audio track, and then appended an audio track to the first one (no deactivating)

[KoD]

The mkvinfo.exe provided in the latest bug-fix build does not create the info window anymore.

[Mosu]

Thanks for noticing. Fixed in http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/win32/pre/mkvtoolnix-unicode-1.8.0-build20061119-1.rar

Hey guys,

Here's a new release of mkvtoolnix, 1.8.1. It's a minor bugfix release, no new features.

Here's my usual link list:

The changes since 1.8.1:

-----------------------------------------------------
2006-11-25 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* Released v1.8.1.

2006-11-24 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: bug fix: Some input controls (like "subtitle charset")
where disabled for appended tracks even though the user can and sometimes has to change those settings. Fixes Anthill bug 216.

2006-11-19 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* configure: new feature: Allow the user to tell configure which "wx-config" executable to use ("--with-wx-config=...").

2006-11-14 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: bug fix: The "aspect ratio" box was losing its input when the user switched tracks.
* mkvmerge/mmg: new feature: If ATDS AAC tracks are added to mmg and the AAC track's sample rate is <= 24000 Hz then mkvmerge and mmg assume that the AAC is a SBR track and mmg will check the "AAC is SBR" checkbox automatically.

2006-11-12 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Quicktime/MP4 files with AVC video tracks and missing CTTS atoms caused mkvmerge to crash after the recent changes to the Quicktime/MP4 timecode handling.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed a segfault if the file specified with
"--attach-file" does not exist. Bugfix for Anthill bug 213 and
Debian bug 393984.
* mmg: bug fix: Fixed a crash on loading XML chapters after having saved XML chapters.

2006-11-11 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: new feature: Made the "set the delay input field from the file name" feature disengageable.

Muxing took 357 seconds.

Error: Packet queue not empty for new track ID 1 (flushed: 0). Frames have been lost during remux. This should not have happened. Please contact the author Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org> with this error/warning message, a description of what you were trying to do, the command line used and which operating system you are using. Thank you.

EDIT: Same problem. Going to try demuxing all tracks and retry.

EDIT2: Yeah demuxing, muxing to MP4 the video and remuxing in MKVToolnix fixed it.

[Mosu]

Hmm, that's an interesting problem. I'd like to see that 2.mkv file you've been using as the source in order to fix this. Could you upload it to my FTP server, please?

[vlada]

I'm not sure if this hasn't been discussed before but I haven't found anything on this topic.

Would it be a big problem to support muxing of MPEG TS (Transport Streams - MPEG-2, MPEG-4) in mkvmerge? I think since there is Haali's splitter with TS support, some of the code might be used to add this feature to MKVToolnix. Is it planned?

I'm currently trying to mux TS to MKV, but there is no simple way to do it and I'm also having synchronization problems. I hope direct support in mkvmerge (mmg) might fix these problems.

Delay can be added for appended tracks in command line without problem, but this feature is disabled in the GUI :(

It's there, just switch to tab "Format specific options".

[LeMoi]

In version 1.8.1, it's disabled. Which version do you have ?

[vlada]

I have 1.8.1. It's enabled, but you have to select an audio track. I tried it only for MP3, but it should work for other audio tracks too.

[LeMoi]

Indeed, it seems to be available for audio tracks, sorry i forgot to say I meant Subtitles Tracks ^^

I support this. It would be just great to have an app that would convert DVB-S captures in MPEG-TS format directly into MKV. My captures, when being played with MPC directly, will constantly go out of sync (even though i do have a very powerful processor, and res is not more than 720 x 576 from DVB-S Satellite).

If we could convert the MPEG files into MKV without big hassle, i expect all would be fine because of MKVs superior timing features ?

Mosu, any chance of adding this ?

Of course, my dream would be a DVB-S Sat viewer which can record directly into MKV format ;) ....

[Mosu]

To the question about MPEG-TS support: not in the near future, sorry (lack of time).

Setting delay in appended subtitle tracks: I'll fix that. *gone for a second* Please try http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/win32/pre/mkvtoolnix-unicode-1.8.1-build20061209-1.rar
