chapterEditor(Chapter-Database Disc2mkv Matroska-Tools[Tags,Menu,Multi-MKV])+CLI

[tormento]

Is there a way to batch remove from all tabs trivial chapters as 00:00:00.000?

Thanks.

[hubblec4]

No.
Why is this a trivial chatper?

What is the sense of having a chapter of a movie?

Anyway just my preference.

[hubblec4]

Is there only one chapter?
Is the file an MKV? -> In the main menu of the Matroska chapter editor is an entry "Remove chapters from Matroska files"

No, I have many with the first starting at 00:00:00.000.

If you prefer, add a function to add it, as my request comes from episodes saved as one huge m2ts, that I split with MKV to the different episodes. Unfortunately just the first one starts without 00 while the other haven’t that chapter.

Here is a test version.
Select an Edition and you will see a new button (right bottom corner).

Please let me know if it's fine for you.

Sorry for the late reply.

It works fine, thank you. Is it possible to add middle click to apply to all the opened tabs?

[hubblec4]

The button works for all editions in all tabs.

I find a bit odd that to apply to all tabs I have to use right click while save all tabs uses middle click.

Could you uniform that behaviour?

[hubblec4]

Not really, the right click on the save button was first there and has a important function, and a change now will be much work.

You could change the delete same chapter button

Left click, current tab, middle click all tabs.

Could you please re-upload the CLI version? The link is dead.

[hubblec4]

Hi DreckSoft


Which link is dead?

Here is the link from VideoHelp

[DreckSoft]

The one for the CLI version. I do have the regular version.

[hubblec4]

Yupp, it was a link to the old Forum, but there was an update.
I have renewed the link.

Dear hubble,I tested again today following your suggestions, and indeed, after adding the target UID, the settings can be saved. However, both Foobar2000 and AIMP fail to recognize the tags information. If I remove the target UID, it reverts to the default value of "50". I tried adding manually edited tags using mkvtoolnix without the target UID, and both foobar2000 and AIMP can recognize the tags. Additionally, I found a new tag editor on GitHub, https://github.com/Martchus/tageditor, which works without any issues, and they also default to not adding the target UID. When I exported the added tags using gMKVExtractGUI, all tags were without the target UID. However, I noticed in the exported tags.xml that if your chapterEditor disables TargetType and target UID, then all tags lack TargetTypeValue, which doesn't happen in other apps. Could you please test this again? Thank you very much!

Would you please consider the capability to import/export qp files, according to a defined framerate?

I mean, drag and drop qp to create chapters and export chapters (even in batch mode) to qp.

For chapters to qp I can use the utility included with DGToolsNV but the inverse is not available.

[hubblec4]

Hi tormento

qp files are supported. Drop a file in cE, a window open with the frame rate settings.

Can I drop more than one using the same frame rate of the first one?
