MKVToolnix

MKVToolnix is a set of tools to create, alter and inspect Matroska files under Linux, other Unices and Windows. They do for Matroska what the OGMtools do for the OGM format and then some.

With these tools one can get information about (mkvinfo) Matroska files, extract tracks/data from (mkvextract) Matroska files and create (mkvmerge) Matroska files from other media files. Matroska is a new multimedia file format aiming to become THE new container format for the future.

  ## New features and enhancements
  
  
  * MKVToolNix GUI: header editor: double-clicking on one of the three flag
    indicators ("Default track", "Forced display", "Enabled") for a track in the
    tree view will now toggle the corresponding flag. Implements #3773.
  
  
  ## Bug fixes
  
  
  * mkvmerge: AAC parser: LOAS/LATM streams: fixed use of uninitialized data
    when the `StreamMuxConfig` element doesn't contain the `audioMuxVersion`
    element; version 0 must be assumed in such a case. The result was that
    sometimes certain valid AAC packets were dropped. Fix by Stefan Pöschel.
  * mkvmerge: HEVC/H.265 parser: fixed calculation of picture order count
    calculation that was triggered under rare circumstances. Fixes #3775.
  * mkvmerge: Matroska reader: enabled limits for how much data a single
    Matroksa reader instance might buffer when the muxing core looks for packets
    for specific tracks, avoiding huge memory consumption in cases where tracks
    have huge gaps between packets. This might happen when appending files
    containing forced-only subtitle tracks, for example. Fixes #3771.
  * mkvmerge: TrueHD reader: increased the probe range for TrueHD sync frames
    from 128 KB to 512 KB to avoid mis-detection with certain files with a lot
    of data between sync frames. Fixes #3783.
  * mkvmerge: MP4/QuickTime reader: fixed detection of Big Endian LPCM
    audio. Fixes #3788.
  
  
  ## Build system changes
  
  
  * The bundled `fmt` library was updated to v11.1.2.
  * added a new option to `configure` called `--disable-dbus` to disable looking
    for & using QtDBus even if it's present on the system. Default remains to
    probe for its existence. Patch by Anthony Ryan.
