Thank you.
MKVToolNix appears to be creating corrupt MKVs when I try to mux "raw" Blu-ray UHD files (h265/HEVC). If I try to create/mux an MKV with an MPLS as the source file, the result seems to be fine. I am not sure whether this is an issue with the extraction software I am using (eac3to) or MKVToolNix... |

Does the raw HEVC stream play properly? Does ffmpeg complain about something when you decode it with it (you can use the null muxer to test this)? If the answer to these two questions is no, then it's probably a bug in MKVToolNix and you should open an issue on github; if it is no, then it's probably a bug in eac3to. In any case, a sample (of the relevant m2ts file) would be nice.

Hi,
Thx for this great soft. Little suggestion about versioning: Maybe is worth to considering "year.month.hot fix no." for release numbering, as example: ver 17.10.0 - version form year 2017.Oct.Hotfix0 Question about updating: It is possible to implement auto update from application? Now is info about new version and user need to go to web page for download. |

Date-based version numbers have no more real advantages than any other type of arbitrary versioning scheme. The only property that's really important is that newer versions have higher version numbers. What I especially dislike about date-based version numbers is that you have to make up exceptions on the spot in cases where two or more releases happen within the same timeframe (e.g. two regular releases in one month; in your proposed scheme I would have to mark one of them as… a hotfix? Even though it isn't?). So no, I won't change to something like that.
I have zero interest in implementing an auto updater.

Dear Mosu
I am confused, some people say, that they can extract Dolby Vision layer via MKVToolNix. So there is possibility to use MKVToolNix on m2ts file, which has got Dolby Vision and make it mkv file with specified tracks and remain Dolby Vision? I would be glad for your reply. Thank you in advance. Sincerely Last edited by VAMET; 17th October 2017 at 21:50. |

Dear Friends
I have used mkvmerge and have created .mkv file with --compression set to none for video and audio tracks. Please look below for mkvmerge --identify and eac3to identify of those .mkv files. First .mkv file: Quote:
Quote:
2. My second question is related with DTS:X, which should be in THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS [2017] [2160P].mkv and it's identified in mkvmerge and eac3to as Track ID 2: audio (DTS-HD Master Audio). Why it's not properly identified? 3. mkvmerge also doesn't identify Track ID 1: video (MPEG-H/HEVC/h.265) as Dolby Vision Enhancement Layer like eac3to. Thank you in advance for your support.

1. DTS and Dolby work differently. https://github.com/mbunkus/mkvtoolni...rueHD-and-AC-3
2. Probably no detection implemented but works anyways? Wait for Mosu to answer ... 3. Like already said two posts above: https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...49#post1821449 Extra compression is off by default for video and audio anyways. Only active for certain subtitle formats. (And has nothing to do with core or similar. Extra compression is lossless.) Last edited by sneaker_ger; 22nd October 2017 at 14:11. |

DTS:X identification isn't all that easy, it seems. It's not implemented in mkvmerge. There was some work on it by Konablend that resulted in a pull request, but his changes resulted in other bugs. It wasn't polished to the point where it could be included in mkvmerge.

Dear Friends
OK, I understand. I wish it would be identified as DTS:X in the future version. I cross my fingers about it. As far as I understand English, Dolby Atmos/TrueHD cannot have core track in single track, while DTS:X can. So mkvmerge creating .mkv file with Dolby Atmos/TrueHD track it removes all core tracks, so there is only Dolby Atmos/TrueHD and if I will try to play it on the device, which hasn't got Dolby Atmos/TrueHD support, I will not hear anything, right? The other situation is with DTS:X, which has got core track in a single file, right? My question is, I don't care to have core tracks with my DTS:X. Are there any possibility to remove those core tracks from DTS:X, to have only DTS:X track without core? If it's possible may you be so kind and write, what options with mkvmerge should I add to create .mkv file without core tracks in DTS:X or DTS-MA? Thank you in advance for your help.

Not possible. DTS MUST have core. It cannot be removed. |

are there any specifications on how dolby vision can be used inside the matroska container format? if not, would it be possible to add those in the future?

There aren't. After what I've read over how DV can be stored in completely separate sub-streams and how complex the whole DV stuff is, I highly doubt you'll see DV-in-Matroska specs any time soon, if ever.
Contributions and people working on such specs would be highly appreciated.

I see you've changed from "timecode" to "timestamp" in lots of mkvtoolnix parts but is it intentional even for the timecode files outputted by mkvextract? Having the first line of such a file say "# timecode format v2" is kind of an established format in use by lots of other programs as well and now they don't read them anymore (and I assume mkvmerge also won't read anymore?). Of course it's easy to edit but still ...

Yes, that change was intentional. mkvmerge will read both the old and the new format line, just as it will still accept "--timecodes …" as a command-line argument even though it was renamed to "--timestamps …".
As this was a format invented by me for use with mkvmerge, and as I've never had any intention of it being some kind of standard format, I don't consider other applications to be a concern of mine. If you need the format changed, use a small oneliner script such as this one: Code:
perl -pi -e 's/timestamp/timecode/' yourfile.txt

arent such specifications always agreed upon by a large group of people and such? can individuals actually define a standard on their own?
