mkv splitting tool

[Thunderbolt8]

Im looking for a tool that can PRESICELY split mkv's into 2 (or more) pieces. I know you can already split with mkvmerge, but this tool isnt precise enough for me. no matter what method, via time or size, it never splits precise enough, always too far away like 5-7 mb. I have the problem that I need to split a file into 2 really equal pieces (or with only 1 sec difference if movie length number of seconds is uneven).

The only way you can do this is to ensure that you have an I/IDR frame right on the exact frame you want the split to occur. You must have that I-frame to split on, with zones, but if you leave it up to the codec you're bound to get that 3-6 second, 1-10mb difference. (DVDs can be split anywhere because they have extremely short GOPs.) That's true whether it's time or size. Splitting on size with long gops is even more difficult, since you can't specify that I frames must occur at a certain size; you're probably best off two-passing each half of the movie separately, then automatically having time/size splits.

Alternately, you can try binary splitting, but you can only play back the first file then.
