Mkvextract GUI

[zz2]

sorry :scared:

I just tought that mkv container is like some sort of zip that stores files independently what format they are and holds additional info for every file, like this is video, this is audio track 1, audio tarck 2 etc.

[Mosu]

No, it's a bit more complicated than that ;)

[BetaBoy]

lol....

[Doom9]

Or does mp4box come with a "put Vorbis from MP4 back into Ogg" tool?can't you demux with mp4box (audio only of course)?

I agree with your sentiments though, people want to mux and demux left and right for no good reason.
<sarcasm>
It seems to be some kind of sport.. I wonder if we'll ever find the hidden "who can convert a DVD to the most formats within 5 minutes" league ;) /me wants mkvtoolnix to put AVC into WMV now, add wma to it, transmux to ogg, and finally extract the audio as an mp3 ... gimme gimme,.</sarcasm>

Heya,

I'm rewriting a tool to extract tracks/chapters/attachments/cuesheets/tags...from mkv & mka files. Could you test this (http://corecodec.org/frs/?group_id=55&release_id=186#r186) please ? It's just a Wizard. No complicated to use it. There are only 3 steps :

http://kurtnoise.free.fr/wizard_step3.gif

mka support is not finished yet. So, test it only with mkv files. :thanks: Suggestions are welcome of course...

Kurtnoise... get that up on CoreCodec.org!!! It's damn sweet!

[Kurtnoise]

well done sir...;)

[LeMoi]

Seems really good, but doesn't work by me :o
I correctly set the mkvextract path, etc., but when i clic on 'extract', it says
[15:08:59] : Extraction started.
[15:08:59] : Extraction completed.
and nothing has been extracted :o
(i chose two sub tracks and the chapter)
did i do something wrong ?

[planet1]

@Kurtnoise13

:thanks: for this tiny but useful tool!

@BetaBoy

Since there is no project website (yet) - how about redirecting
http://mkvextractgui.corecodec.org/ -> http://corecodec.org/projects/mkvextractgui/ ?

What kind of subtitles ? Could you post you command lines please..

[LeMoi]

Srt subs...
i chose more than one track, if i copy paste the command line in a cmd window, no problem...
"C:\Program Files\MKVtoolnix\mkvextract.exe" tracks "E:\Mes documents\Mes Vidéos\Films\Graver\file.mkv" 4:"E:\Mes documents\Mes Vidéos\Films\Graver\file_track4.srt" 5:"E:\Mes documents\Mes Vidéos\Films\Graver\file_track5.srt" 6:"E:\Mes documents\Mes Vidéos\Films\Graver\file_track6.srt"

[21:07:21] : MKVE Wizard started.
[21:07:45] : Parsing file.mkv ...
[21:08:00] : Extraction started.
[21:08:00] : Extraction completed.

[buzzqw]

could the problem be "é" letter in path ?

BHH

[Kurtnoise]

I don't think so because he said that it works with cmd prompt window. I'll check this...

[LeMoi]

Maybe it's an unicode problem.
i had same problem with files where there were ê and è in the name, i changed into 'e', and it worked fine :s

OK I've had troubles with this new wizard:

When-ever I try and use your new wizard extractor It says this: C:\Documents and Settings\Michael\Desktop\Wizard\\mkveX.bat doesn't exist.

Ibeleive that its's because of the extra "\"right in front of the mkvrX.bat but I can see "mkveX.bat in the wizard folder while this is happening.

I was wolndering if you could help me get rid of this problem. or if you could give me a new wizard. I downloaded the wizard off of yuor CoreCodec site.

I'm using the wizard because when ever I try to open a file into MKVExtract 1.5.5 with the mkvtoolnix and runtime uni-code installed it gives me this message:

Error creating Chilg Process

CreatChildProcess(ExeName,CommandLine, FChildStdoutWr)

I was also wondering what this is... could you help me out? thank you very much.

[Kurtnoise]

The big problem is : I lost the sources of this tool.

Which mkvtoolnix version did you use ? Did you try to extract files manually with mkvextract ?

[BetaBoy]

The big problem is : I lost the sources of this tool.


DOH!!! What a shame, I loved it!

[shukero]

What do you mean which mkvtoolnix did I use? I guessing you are talking about the mkvextractgui, and for that I used the latest one I beleive it was 1.6.5 or something and the runtime was 1.4 I beleive... I just want to get that wizard working cause .mkv is ALL I use that program for so I can turn stuff into .avi PLEASE I just need a fix for the new wizard so it can find the .bat file that was up ^above^ if you are asking m if I used anyway mkvtoolnix on the wizard then I would have to say no. Cause I just thought that I needed everything in the wizard's folder. But I did get the mkvextract.exe out of my other folder and pu it in there.

So If you can just tell me how to fix the wizard problem (how to take out of th extra "\") or if you could send me something that would get rid of the problem it would be grat. thanks ^^

[Kurtnoise]

well, this wizard uses mkvextract from mkvtoolnix. I asked what mkvtoolnix version did you use...

Tell me also what did you have as video and audio streams...

I'll try to rewrite it from scratch tomorrow.

[shukero]

OK well I got the mkvextract.exe from the 1.5.5 that I was trying to get to work before that error message came up. So when the wizard asked for it, I just pulled the mkvextract.exe out of that folder and into my wizard folder. The mkvextract in that 1.5.5 folder was from the most recent release of mkvtoolnix, I believe it was 1.6.5 unicode.

Now for the audio and video streams. I usually use this program to extract the .avi(video) and .acc(audio) since I have a converting program to changed it from .acc to .mp3 If its not a .acc audio file then I can always use virtualdubmod to encode the usual .ogg audio file to .mp3

So the extracted video and audio are .avi and .acc

P.S.
By the way thank you SOOOO much to help me in such a short amount of time, and thank you for fixing the program. It helps me trumendously ^^

[shukero]

Has anyone been able to fix the wizard? I need the wizard cause I cant use the MKVExtact GUI due to the error message I get thats already on page 6. Can anyone tell me how to fix that error or can someone give me the fixed wizard? I cant demux anything till I get the wizard. I only use the wizard for demuxing .avi and .aac files. PLEASE help

[tomos]

Hi,

I'm trying to use this to extract video and audio from an mkv file. the audio always works perfectly, but it always fails on mpeg 2 video for some reason.

error is: extraction of track number 1 with the CodecID 'V_MPEG2' is not supported

i've had a look around this forum but cant get any results for this err.

[robU*4]

for MPEG2 try to extract it as raw.

[shukero]

has the new mini-program been built yet? or is he still working on it?

[saga_gx]

I'm having problems extracting subtitles from a mkv file
it works fine with the audio and video, but the subtitles are wrong,
when I play the files, the subs seem to be fine, but I can't extract them,
this is what appears to be the .sub file inside the mkv when I open it with the notepad after mkv extracted them

http://img279.imageshack.us/img279/522/untitled18vi.th.jpg (http://img279.imageshack.us/my.php?image=untitled18vi.jpg)



any idea???

[LeMoi]

.sub shouldn't be opened with notepad, it comes with an .idx, you can convert it into an srt, if that's what you need, with SubRip ;)

[shukero]

still waiting for a new version of the wizard... since the one they have on the site still doesnt work ><

Wizard has been rewritten from scratch (I had lost the sources :s ). It's almost finished now but I need to test 2-3 things before to release it. So, stop to ask when. It's very annoying.

Apart from that, what's wrong with mkvextractGUI ? Why it doesn't work for you ? Did you have an error return ?

[crashray]

Could you make a macinstosh Version ?

[Kurtnoise]

Me ? Sorry...I don't have a Mac OS.

[crashray]

Could you give me your source ? I will try to make the same in mac os.
Thanks

[Kurtnoise]

You mean sources of MkvextractGUI or the Wizard ?

MkvextractGUI sources are available here (http://corecodec.org/frs/?group_id=55&release_id=141#r141). I hope you have BootCamp with Windows otherwise you can't compile some Delphi stuff.

Otherwise Lazarus can help you (free pascal). Maybe...

Thanks.
But the version of mkvtoolnix in mac os is not the same in windows. We have the version 1.6.5 :scared:

But i tried to do something :p

[crashray]

How can we know if the mkv have chapter ?
For the tracks and attachments, i make mkvmerge -i.
And how can i "study" the source in Windows Xp ?

[Kurtnoise]

How can we know if the mkv have chapter ?
Use mkvinfo.

And how can i "study" the source in Windows Xp ?
What you mean by "study" ? To compile mkvextractGUI, you need Delphi 7/2005 Personal Edition at least.

I had post it on codecodecs mkvextractgui bugtrack in 2006-04-14,
but the message still marked as open.

Hi ! This Gui only extract video and audio. Can you add "timecode" "...." options ?
Thank you very much !

[Weltall]

Could someone help me!? I have some x264+aac ps files in .mkv extension on my pc, I wanted to remux it to .mp4, but I couldn't! How can I do that? I tried to extract video and audio with Matroska GUI and mux with YAMB, but I hadn't sucess, video doesn't sync with audio. Thanks in advance.

[thuongshoo]

New version can't extract timcode file becasue it uses timecode_v2 argument instead of timecodes_v2
Hope this bug is fixed.

[Weltall]

Problem solved, thanks to Kurtnoise! You are great man!

[neo squidward]

for MPEG2 try to extract it as raw. How is it possible to extract it as raw? I'm using MKVExtract GUI 1.6.2 and cannot find a corresponding option.

[vlada]

Hello, I have following problem with MKVExtract GUI 1.6.3 - I opend a MKA file with one AC3 audio track, attachments and chapters. I can demux the AC3 file and attachments, but I don't know how could I extract the chapters. If I switch to the Chapters tab, I can only select there OGM and XML, but what next?
Also could you please add support for extracting chapters as CUE sheet? The support for CUE is in mkvextract.exe, so it should be just a matter of adding one more checkbox to the GUI.

Tick chapters in the first tab. Then go to the second tab and select which format you want. Now copy and paste the text into a new file. CUE sheet format is supported but maybe only if you used a CUE sheet with mkvmerge originally.

I was also wondering what this is... could you help me out? thank you very much.

I didn't notice a straight answer to this yet, (but I know it asks for a path for mkvextract on very 1st run.) For some reason it ran fine when I first extraced it. I moved everything but the .INI file to MKVnix and then it re-asks for mkvextract and I get the same error. Is something written to registry? Hmm.. I will keep testing it...

And if this was answered and I missed it, sorry ......

-bC

[BoNeCrUsHeR]

I get that same error with MKVExtractGUI:
Error creating Chilg Process

CreatChildProcess(ExeName,CommandLine, FChildStdoutWr)

which is why I was using the Wizard instead. Now that the wizard has stopped working I just copy and paste the line it makes to CLI/DOS\

EDIT:

Ok, I re-installed to a 1st level directory (example: c:\wizard) (not c:\blahblah\blahblah\blahblah\wizard)
and it is working again. I think it is simply not formatting the path correctly (obviously) but this allows it to at least work without having to keep opening CLI's...
Hope this helps someone.

[crashray]

The source are not available here : http://kurtnoise.free.fr/MKVextractGUI155_src.zip
Where can i find the source ?

After a long time out i loss the sources and CoreCodec seems to be down.
