Update MKVToolNix
#11
# Version 30.0.0 "Interstellar" 2019-01-04

## New features and enhancements

* mkvextract: WAV extractor: mkvextract will now write W64 files instead of
 WAV files if the file name extension is `.w64` or if the final file size is
 bigger than 4 GB, the file size limit for WAV files. Implements #2458.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: a new button was added next to the "destination
 file" controls. Clicking it shows a menu with the ten most recently used
 output directories. Selecting one of them will change the destination file
 to the selected directory keeping the file name. Implements #2468.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer (preferences): the ten most recently used values
 for the "relative output directory" and "fixed output directory" settings
 are now saved. The corresponding settings have been changed into combo boxes
 allowing quick access to those recent values.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer (preferences): the predefined split sizes and
 durations can now be customized in the preferences.
* MKVToolNix GUI: chapter editor: added an option in the "Chapter editor" menu
 for appending chapters from an existing file to the currently open editor
 tab. Part of the implementation of #2439.
* MKVToolNix GUI: chapter editor: added an action in the context menu for
 copying the selected entry and all of its children to another open editor
 tab. Part of the implementation of #2439.

## Bug fixes

* mkvmerge: all files opened for writing will now be flushed once before
 they're closed. This ensures the operating system actually writes all cached
 data to disk preventing data loss in certain situations such as power
 outages or buggy drivers in combination with suspending the computer. Fixes
 #2469.
* mkvmerge: AAC: under certain conditions 8 channel audio files were taken for
 7 channel ones.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: removing a file added as an "additional part"
 will no longer cause a crash. Fixes #2461.
* source code: fixed compilation with Boost 1.69.0 after API-breaking change
 to the `boost::tribool` class. Fixes #2460.

Version 30.1.0 "Forever And More" 2019-01-05

## Bug fixes

* build system: fixed building on non-UTF-8 locales. Fixes #2474.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: implemented a workaround for drag & drop not
 working on macOS with Qt 5.12 due to a bug in Qt 5.12. Fixes #2472.
* MKVToolNix GUI: chapter editor: when opening a Matroska/WebM file that
 doesn't contain chapters and later saving chapters back to them, the editor
 was truncating the file down to a couple of KB in size. This was a
 regression introduced with the implementation of #2439 in v30.0.0 Fixes
 #2476.

MKVToolnix 54.0.0  (New) Released :  https://mkvtoolnix.download/doc/NEWS.md            # Version 54.0.0 "F Maj Pixie" 2021-02-26

## New features and enhancements

* mkvmerge: added support for using ISO 639-3 language codes in IETF BF47
  language tags. Part of the implementation of #3007.
* mkvmerge: AC-3 parser: added support for byte-swapped AC-3 data. Implements
  #3022.
* mkvmerge: Matroska reader: for audio tracks that have the bit depth track
  header set mkvmerge will now keep that header even for codecs that don't
  require it for decoding. Implements #3009.
* mkvmerge: MPEG transport stream reader, PCM audio tracks: mkvmerge will now
  re-order the channels for 5.1, 7.0 and 7.1 channel tracks from the Blu-ray
  layout to the WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE layout expected in Matroska. Patch by Tom
  Yan. Implements #2988.
* mkvmerge, mkvinfo, mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI: added support for the
  following new track header elements: "hearing impaired" flag, "visual
  impaired" flag, "text descriptions" flag, "original" flag, "commentary"
  flag. Implements #3011.
* MKVToolNix GUI: added support for using ISO 639-3 language codes in IETF
  BF47 language tags. As there are several thousand of them, they're
  deactivated by default and must be activated in the preferences ("GUI" →
  "Often used selections" → "Languages"). Part of the implementation of #3007.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when adding Blu-rays the user can select
  multiple playlists to add simultaneously in the "select playlist to add"
  dialog. Implements #2961.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: the file name extensions "eb3" and "ec3" were
  added for Dolby Digital Plus & "mpl" for Dolby TrueHD in the file
  dialogs. Part of the implementation of #3027.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when adding multiple files the dialog asking
  the user what to do with them has gained a new checkbox. If enabled, all
  files containing at least one video track will always be placed in newly
  created multiplex setting. Implements #2966.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: added a menu entry in the "Multiplexer" for
  adding all files that are currently in the clipboard. Implements #3006.

## Bug fixes

* all: Windows: fixed compatibility with gettext 0.21 and newer on mingw.
* all: Windows: fixed several of the programs having problems with certain
  Unicode characters (primarily emojis) in file names (e.g. mkvextract
  wrongfully complaining about an "invalid mode" or the GUI not being able to
  find parts of Blu-ray file structures).
* mkvextract: AAC: fixed wrong channel mask field in the ADTS headers for 7.1
  channel layouts. Fix by Tom Yan. Fixes #2636.
* mkvextract: h.265/HEVC extraction: if the first frame starts with the
  parameter sets (SPS, PPS & VPS), the ones from CodecPrivate aren't written
  and the ones from the first frame are kept. Fixes #3031.
* mkvmerge: fixed the calculation of chapter timestamps read from NTSC
  DVDs. Fix by Tom Yan.
* MKVToolNix GUI: IETF BCP 47 language widget: the language combo box will now
  always contain the language code the user enters in the free-form field,
  even if it isn't in the list of often-used languages the user configured in
  the preferences.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when browsing for the destination file name the
  default directory is now chosen according to the preferences regarding how
  the destination file name should be formed. For example, if the policy is
  set to "fixed output directory" then that output directory will be the one
  initially set when the directory selection dialog is opened. Fixes #3021.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: fixed the removal of appended source files if
  the "delete source files" end-of-job action is enabled. Fixes #3029.
* MKVToolNix GUI: chapter editor: when importing chapters from DVDs the IETF
  BCP 47 language elements will be set, too, not just the legacy language
  elements.

## Build system changes

* libEBML v1.4.2 and libMatroska v1.6.3 are now required. The optional,
  bundled copies of both libraries have been updated to those versions. This
  bump in requirements fixes several heap overflow bugs in libEBML.
* MKVToolNix is now using the C++17 library feature "file system library"
  instead of Boost's "file system" and "system" libraries. For the GNU
  Compiler Collection (gcc) libstdc++ this means v8 or newer is required; for
  clang's libc++ it means v7 or newer. For macOS this means that provided disk
  image will only run on 10.15 "Catalina" or newer.

MKVToolNix 55.0.0

Changelog: https://mkvtoolnix.download/doc/NEWS.md


# Version 55.0.0 "Waiting For Space" 2021-03-06

## Bug fixes

* all programs, only on Windows: fixed checking existence of & creating
  directories with UNC paths such as `\\server\share\folder\file.mkv`. Fixes
  #3041.
* all programs, only on Windows: implemented several workarounds for bugs in
  `std::filesystem` wrt. UNC paths. The effect of those bugs was that Blu-rays
  and DVDs couldn't be added from UNC paths. Fixes #3037.
* mkvmerge, only on Windows: fixed non-ASCII characters getting mangled in the
  destination file name when splitting is active.
* MKVToolNix GUI, only on Windows: fixed the GUI hanging when trying to browse
  for files on drives that don't actually exist. Fixes #3046.
* MKVToolNix GUI, only on Windows: the GUI did not remember UNC paths as the
  "most recently used source directory" properly.
* MKVToolNix GUI: only on Windows: when dragging & dropping files from other
  applications to MKVToolNix GUI the GUI will force the drop action to be a
  copy action, no matter which keys were pressed by the users. This prevents
  Windows Explorer from deleting the dragged file when the user presses shift
  while dropping the file onto MKVToolNix GUI.
* MKVToolNix GUI, only on Windows: when using the file dialog for selecting a
  file name to save to (e.g. when browsing for the destination file name in
  the multiplexer or saving an attachment in the header editor) non-ASCII
  characters in the default file name were mangled. Fixes #3049.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: the user can now configure what to do when
  using the "Add source files" button independently of the setting for what
  happens when files are dragged & dropped onto the GUI. The same options are
  available, but they're distinct settings, allowing for different use
  cases. Fixes #3035.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: deriving the track language from file names
  doesn't use one big regular expression of all enabled languages
  anymore. Instead, the file name is split into parts on a list of characters
  (such as `.` or `(` and `)`; configurable in the preferences). This prevents
  the regular expression becoming too big for the regular expression library
  to handle when many languages are enabled. Fixes #3048.
* MKVToolNix GUI: preferences: the language lists for "deriving track
  languages" and "enabling items by language" always included all the ISO
  639-3 languages, even if those weren't enabled in the "often-used languages"
  pane. Fixes #3047.

## Other changes

* mkvmerge, MKVToolNix GUI multiplexer: the functionality for changing the
  length of the NALU "size" field for AVC/H.264 and HEVC/H.265 tracks has been
  removed. The corresponding command-line option will continue to be
  recognized by mkvmerge as not to break existing third-party applications,
  but it won't actually do anything.

MKVToolnix 56.0.0

New features and enhancements
  • mkvmerge, mkvpropedit: tags: the programs will no longer write tag elements that are mandatory and set to their default value (e.g. “tag language” set to `und` = undetermined).
  • mkvmerge, mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI chapter editor: chapters: the programs will no longer write chapter elements that are mandatory and set to their default value (e.g. “chapter language” set to `eng` = English or “Chapter flag enabled” = 1).
  • mkvextract: chapters: mkvextract will no longer add a `ChapterLanguage` element set to `eng` to the generated XML content if the source file doesn’t contain such an element.
  • MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when using the “tab widget below the files & tracks” layout option for the track properties the elements in the “general options” tab will use six rows à four columns instead of twelve rows à two columns, greatly reducing the required height.
Bug fixes
  • mkvmerge: AAC reader: fixed mkvmerge aborting to read AAC files bigger than 2 GB with a message about not being able to allocate memory.
  • mkvmerge: chapters: `ChapLanguageIETF` elements were still created when the option `–disable-language-ietf` was given after an option leading to the creation of chapters. Now the position doesn’t matter anymore.
  • mkvmerge: chapters: when the option `–disable-language-ietf` is used, `ChapLanguageIETF` elements won’t be written even when sources are read (Matroska files or XML chapters files) that do contain those elements.
  • mkvmerge: tags: when the option `–disable-language-ietf` is used, `TagLanguageIETF` elements won’t be written.
  • mkvmerge: tags: mkvmerge will no longer write language elements for the track statistics tags it creates, making the effective language “undetermined” due to `und` being the default value for the legacy tag language element.
  • mkvmerge: tags: the XML tag parser will now validate all “ children of “ elements, not just the first for each “.
  • mkvmerge: tags: the XML tag parser now uses the spec-compliant `und` (“undetermined”) as the default language for “ tags instead of `eng`.
  • mkvmerge, mkvpropedit: tags: mkvmerge will no longer set the “target type” for track statistics tags (earlier it used `MOVIE`). The “target type value” will still be set to `50`.
  • mkvmerge, mkvextract: HEVC/H.265: both programs will now normalize the placement of VPS, SPS and PPS NALUs. Each key frame is prefixed with exactly one copy of the currently active parameter sets. This fixes certain classes of bugs related to splitting/appending.
  • mkvinfo: when compiled with newer versions of the `fmt` library, certain numbers were not output correctly (e.g. a track’s audio sampling frequency of 48000 might be output as 48).
  • MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: deriving the track language from the file name will match languages case insensitively again (like versions prior to v55).
  • MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: under certain circumstances keyboard shortcuts such as `Ctrl+W` for closing the active tab or `Ctrl+R` for starting to multiplex ceased to work until the user did certain other things (such as switching to a different tool & back to the multiplexer or opening the multiplexer menu). This started with v54.
  • MKVToolNix GUI: chapter editor: the editor will no longer create empty `ChapterCountry` elements when adding a chapter name with no default country selected in the preferences.
Build system changes
  • The bundled `fmt` library was updated to v7.1.3.

MKVToolNix 56.1.0

April 9, 2021

Changelog: https://mkvtoolnix.download/doc/NEWS.md

 

# Version 56.1.0 "My Friend" 2021-04-09

## New features and enhancements

* mkvmerge: AAC: added support for LOAS/LATM files with channel configuration
  indexes 9–21 (e.g. channel count 22.2 for index 13) according to Rec. ITU-R
  BS.1196-7 & ISO/IEC 23008-3:2019. Fixes #3081.

## Bug fixes

* mkvmerge: HEVC/H.265 parser: fixed invalid memory access that could happen
  when reading certain types of HEVC data (e.g. with changing parameter sets
  mid-stream) from certain containers (e.g. Matroska). This bug was introduced
  in release 56.0.0. Fixes #3083.
* mkvextract: AAC: mkvextract will now abort with an useful error message when
  the user tries to extract a track whose 'audio-specific config' element in
  `CodecPrivate` signals a number of channels of 7 or greater than 8 as that

  isn't supported by the ADTS format.


## Build system changes

* configure: the `--enable-ubsan` option hasn't actually enabled anything
  since release 39.0.0.

MKVToolnix 57.0.0



New features and enhancements
  • mkvmerge: MP4 reader: added support for reading Dolby Vision from MP4 files (FourCCs `dvh1` and `dvhe`; configuration records `dvcC`, `dvvC` and `hvcE` will be converted into block addition mappings).
  • mkvmerge: SRT subtitles: mkvmerge now accepts empty text files with the extension `.srt` as SRT subtitle files, enabling the creation of empty SRT tracks.
  • mkvmerge, mkvextract: HEVC/H.265: access unit delimiter NALUs will no longer be discarded, neither during muxing nor during extraction.
  • MKVToolNix GUI: preferences: switched the order & wording of controls in the “enabling items” panel to make it clearer that certain controls define exceptions.
Bug fixes
  • mkvmerge: HEVC/H.265 parser: several NALU types, notably the Dolby Vision-specific NALUs (“unspecified 62” and “unspecified 63”) and suffix SEI NALUs, are now stored with the frame they belong to instead of with the next frame.
  • mkvmerge: HEVC/H.265 packetizer: fixed setting the track’s default duration when reading HEVC/H.265 from Matroska files that don’t have a default duration set.
  • mkvmerge: HEVC/H.265 packetizer: fixed the calculation of the duration of frames so that `SimpleBlock` elements can be used again instead of `BlockGroups` with `BlockDuration` elements.
  • mkvmerge, mkvextract: HEVC/H.265 parser: fixed issues with ordering & duplication of certain NALUs (parameter set & prefix SEI NALUs).
  • MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when dragging & dropping files to the multiplexer, the source directory will be remembered as the “last open
    directory” again, causing subsequent uses of the “open file” dialog to start in the same directory.
  • mkvinfo: fixed the position of frames in block groups containing “block duration” elements in summary mode (e.g. for subtitle tracks).
Build system changes
  • `configure` will now try to detect `libmagic` via `pkg-config` and fall back to including & linking directly if it cannot be found via `pkg-config`.

MKVToolnix 58.0.0

Changes in MKVToolnix 58.0.0 “Supper’s Ready” (2021-06-13):
# Version 58.0.0 "Supper's Ready" 2021-06-13

## New features and enhancements

* mkvmerge, MKVToolNix GUI's multiplexer: the handling of the "default track"
flag has been changed to match the recent changes to the Matroska
specifications. The new semantics are that if it is set, it is supposed to
signal to the player that this track is eligible for being played by
default, potentially taking other factors such as user preferences regarding
languages into account.

This implies that more than one track of each type can have this flag
set. For example, a Blu-ray disc with three audio tracks might have
the main audio in both English and Japanese, whereas the third audio
track contains the director's comments. In such a case the first two
tracks should have the "default track" flag set, the third one
shouldn't.

Earlier `mkvmerge` was enforcing that only one track of each type could have
the flag set. This restriction has been removed, both in `mkvmerge` and in
the GUI's multiplexer.

`mkvpropedit` and the GUI's header editor are unaffected as they've always
allowed to set the flag on as many tracks as the user wanted.
* mkvmerge: AVC/H.264 & HEVC/H.265 identification: added the stream's pixel
dimensions (AVC only; were present for HEVC already) & default
duration. Implements #3116.
* mkvmerge, mkvextract: HEVC/H.265: added support for reading single-layer
Dolby Vision from Annex B type bitstreams (elementary streams, MPEG
transport streams). Patch by quietvoid. Implements #3113.
* mkvinfo: the option `-X`/`--full-hexdump` now affects all binary elements,
not just the frame data in `SimpleBlock` and `BlockGroup` elements.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: the "delay" and "sync" options can now be used
for chapters in source files, too. Implements #3129.
* MKVToolNix GUI: when moving list entries up & down with the optional buttons
or the keyboard shortcuts (instead of using drag & drop), the GUI ensures
that the top-most selected entry remains visible after the move. Implements
#3123.
* MKVToolNix GUI: added an option in the preference to use legacy MIME types
for font attachments instead of the current standard ones
(e.g. 'application/x-truetype-font' instead of 'font/sfnt' and 'font/ttf').


## Bug fixes


* build system: fixed filtering out optimization options when compiling the
file `iso639_language_list.cpp` (before only numeric optimization levels
were filtered out and only if it wasn't the last option in the list of
flags). See #3105 for context.
* build system: when libmagic was detected via `pkg-config`, MKVToolNix was
actually compiled without support for libmagic due to a preprocessor symbol
not being defined.
* mkvmerge: MP4 reader: fixed an issue with timestamps overflowing when the
file's or the track's time scale is large. Fixes #3124.
* mkvmerge, mkvextract: fixed key frame handling for `BlockGroup` elements
with a forward reference but no backward references. Patches by Tom Yan.
* mkvmerge, mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI's chapter editor: the programs will no
longer omit writing mandatory elements set to their default value if other
elements of the same type are present in the same master. This affects
mostly the "chapter language" element which may occur multiple times within
the same "chapter display" master. If it does occur multiple times and one
of them is set to "English" (which is that element's default value), that
element will now be written, too. Part of the fix of #3120.
* mkvmerge, mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI's chapter editor: when parsing chapter
files IETF & legacy language elements as well as legacy country elements
will now be properly generated depending on which exist already, especially
when there's more than one language and/or country element in a "chapter
display" element. Part of the fix of #3120.
* mkvmerge, mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI's chapter editor: fixed reading
OGM-style chapter files with timestamps that don't have exactly three
decimal places. Any number of decimal places between one and nine is now
supported for nanosecond precision. Fixes #3121.
* MKVToolNix GUI: chapter editor: added/fixed support for "chapter display"
elements with multiple languages or countries. Part of the fix of #3120.

## Build system changes

* Qt 6: added support for building with Qt 6. `configure` will look for Qt 6
first and only continue looking for Qt 5 if Qt 6 isn't found or disabled via
`--disable-qt6`.

Qt 6 detection works by first looking for the `qmake6` binary. Its location
can be specified with the `--with-qmake6=…` option.

All other Qt 6 related facts (such as compiler & linker flags or the
position of the other required tools such as `lconvert`, `moc`, `rcc` and
`uic`) will be derived from the output generated by `qmake6`.

Note that at this point Qt 6 is not yet supported for the cross-compilation
build to Windows, nor is a static Qt 6 build supported yet.

Note that the command line options `--enable-static-qt`,
`--with-qt-pkg-config-modules` and `--without-qt-pkg-config` only apply to
the Qt 5 and have no effect on Qt 6.
* Qt 5: the options for specifying the position of the tools (`--with-moc=…`,
`--with-rcc=…` and `--with-uic=…`) have been removed. Their position will
now be derived from the output generated by `qmake`.
* `configure`: completely disabling the GUI now requires passing both
`--disable-qt6` and `--disable-qt` options.
* Boost's multi-precision library is now required.
* Boost v1.66 or newer is now required.

## Other changes

* The Windows build is now using an updated version of the
`file`/`magic` library for MIME type detection of attachments. This
affects fonts whose MIME types will now be the current standard MIME
types (e.g. `font/sfnt` or `font/ttf` for TrueType fonts). As this
might pose problematic with older players that only support the
legacy MIME type (e.g. `application/x-truetype-font`), a new option
was added in the GUI's preferences to use the legacy MIME types
instead of the current standard ones. This is off by default.
Builds for other operating systems have already been using newer
versions of the `file`/`magic` library for a long time.
