I have a strange result with some subtitles (chinese).
I extract a subtitle stream from tsMuxeR : file size 28,3MB / 1678 subtitles
Then I mux it to MKV and extract it to sup : file size 55,6MB / 3360 subtitles
If I mux directly from BD to MKV and extract it to sup : file size 28,3MB / 1678 subtitles
Is it a known "issue" ? SUP is OK from BD to tsMuxeR, SUP is OK from BD to MKV but SUP is not OK from BD to tsMuxeR to MKV.
Thank you.

Edit : Last subtitle timecode from 1678 subtitles file : 02:15:50,976
Last subtitle timecode from 3360 subtitles file : 04:31:45,789

Edit 2 : Just tried DGDemux instead of tsMuxeR, it's OK so it seems to be a tsMuxeR issue

Yes, it is fine.

But if you are confused a little more info about MediaInfo options:

For what the two videos have the same duration with a different FPS, and the frames are the same?

Because rounding info data with similar fps.
In the MediaInfo window check Debug-> Advanced mode
Then you can see more exact data like:

Code:
...
Duration                                 : 00:01:36.200
Frame rate                               : 25.000
Frame count                              : 2405
...
Where Duration = 2405/25

In your two videos it's not possible have the same exact duration and frame count with different fps.
Or have different duration or frame count.
Whit the same frame count one can be 1:44:00 and other 1:44:06, only 6 seconds rounded to 1:44 but enough to unsync the audio.

What is the correct one? I can't know, old film movies are 24 fps, but digital ones can be at 23.976.

In order to play you can't see differences between both.

Does mkvmerge keep the Dolby Vision metadata (from RPU) when joining AV1 or HEVC files? Or is this kind of functionality even supported without messing up the RPU?

It does, yes. That being said, the same restrictions apply as for appending other H.26x content (where the codec private data must match): the global Dolby Vision data must match as well — though that isn't checked right now, but only the parts of the first file are kept if I remember correctly.

Caveat emptor: I haven't really tested this a lot.

In this case, the data doesn't match as each file would have its own RPU. My idea was to do parallel chunked encoding by splitting the RPU file accordingly and join the chunks later. Looks like it's not going to work.. HEVC in Matroska can have RPU injected afterwards, but AV1 does not have such tools yet.

For HEVC appending will likely work even if the global DoVi data doesn't match as nothing's removed from the bitstream. All UNSPEC62 & UNSPEC63 NALUs are kept, and the global data (dvcC, dvvC, dvwC in MP4 speak) is derived solely from those NALUs.

Looks like it works with AV1 as well, at least DoVi is detected by MediaInfo which is not the case with ffmpeg-joined files. I'll just need to ask quietvoid if he knows whether the approach would affect playback in a negative way.

Since mkvmerge doesn't change the bitstream as Mosu said, it should be fine to do whatever.
I've had a script do chunked AV1 encodes with RPU and they played fine.

Frame rate mode                          : Constant
Frame rate                               : 24.000 FPS
It plays fine in sync with MPC-HC, but... Is it realy what it should be...
Timestamps can be written on contaner-level and in-elementary-stream. Which two can differ. Therefore (proper) playback depends on which of the two timestamps are honoured by the player.
Unless things have changed recently, the "Fix bitstream timing info" only works for AVC video. Read here:

https://mkvtoolnix.download/doc/mkvmerge.html#d4e1980 scroll down to "--fix-bitstream-timing-information"

I like to have timestamps in both elementary video and container being the same. To rewrite timestamps for HEVC I use ffmpeg.exe. Two command-lines I often use are:

For 24 fps:
Code:
ffmpeg -i input.hevc -c copy -bsf:v hevc_metadata=tick_rate=24:num_ticks_poc_diff_one=1 output.hevc
For "23.976" fps:
Code:
ffmpeg -i input.hevc -c copy -bsf:v hevc_metadata=tick_rate=(24000/1001):num_ticks_poc_diff_one=1 output.hevc

You are right, don't work with HEVC video.
Maybe Mosu can limit or add that Note to the help text.

Then the ffmpeg tool must be used. Also work eac3to:

eac3to input24.mkv 1: output.h265 -changeTo23.976

With eac3to I have much used the changeTo... for AVC. Simply didn't know it could do also for HEVC. Thanks for letting this know.

MKVToolNix v83.0 released

Heyoooo!

Here's a tiny release with two small new features. Mostly it's so small because we've spent quite a lot of time improving & reworking two underlying libraries libEBML & libMatroska that MKVToolNix uses, among with required adjustments to MKVToolNix's source code as well.

Here are the usual links: the MKVToolNix home page, the downloads section and the source code.

The Windows and macOS binaries as well as the Linux AppImage are available already. The other Linux binaries are still being built and will be available over the course of the next couple of hours.

Here are the NEWS since the previous release:

Version 83.0 "Circle Of Friends" 2024-03-10
New features and enhancements
  • translations: added a Belarusian translation of the programs & the man pages by prydespar (see "AUTHORS").
  • mkvmerge, MKVToolNix GUI's chapter editor: added support for reading chapters from ffmpeg metadata files. Implements #3676.
  • MKVToolNix GUI: added a new action type for execution after jobs or the queue finishes: quitting MKVToolNix. Implements #3677.

Build system changes
  • The bundled "fmt" library was updated to v10.2.1.

Other changes
  • Tons of changes were made to support the latest development versions of libEBML & libMatroska.

Have fun 😁

Hello Mosu,

For the 64bit portable 7z version Windows (Windows antivirus) is detecting a virus, do you confirm this file is safe ?

It's fine. A/V mis-detection happens from time to time with newly compiled programs that haven't been around a lot yet, especially after having changed the code signing certificate a couple of months ago (the old one expired). See this FAQ entry for more information.

Addendum: I've submitted the file to Microsoft for further analysis, and they agree with me assessment that the files are harmless. The signature will be removed from detection.

I gave to a frien an mkv muxed with the 82.0.49 version.
He told me that he cannot fast forwad or advance fast with all his players, except with VLC.
I also gave an mkv muxed with mkvtoolnix, but i made 4 years ago (around) i think.
He had no issue with this one.
According his net research, it's some kind of "indexing issue".

Does this ring a bell to someone ?
Is there some kind of default setting which could have changed in mkvtoolnix during the last (around) 4 year, concering "indexing" ?
If it rings a bell to someone, what's the "fix" (or setting) ?

Happening to me for the last 6 months or so. It freezes for about 30s or a minute when jumping to a different section of video.
I don't think it's an issue with MKV as remuxing to MP4 doesn't make a difference, and this doesn't happen remuxing to MKV from downloaded MP4.
Maybe it has to do with x264 build (always use Ligh's build). I updated to latest from him and I will check in following encodes.

The issue is that it happened on a around 4 years old MKV, i remuxed. The old MKV was "fine", the new not, so... Aside MKVToolnix, i don't see anything else...
