mkvtoolnix: updated to 76.0
Version 76.0 "Celebration" 2023-04-30
Important notes
* mkvmerge: removed the option `--blockadd`. Removing block additional data is
not possible anymore, as it is often required for proper decoding.
New features and enhancements
* mkvmerge: JSON file identification: added a child element called
`num_index_entries` to the `properties` track element containing the number
of index entries found for a track. Currently only implemented for Matroska
files where it contains the number of cue points.
* mkvmerge: the maximum block addition ID track header value is now calculated
automatically from both the existing mappings & the actually used block
additions in the block groups.
* mkvmerge: Matroska reader: when reading WebM files that use block additions
with ID 4 (HDR for VP9) an appropriate block addition mapping will be
created automatically.
* mkvmerge: MP4 reader: the title/movie name meta data (content of the
`udta.meta.ilst.©nam` atom) will now be copied over as the segment title
track header attribute.
* mkvmerge: MP4 reader: the comment & encoder meta data (content of the
`udta.meta.ilst.©cmt` & `….©too` atoms) will now be copied over as global
tags `COMMENT` & `ENCODER` respectively.
* mkvmerge, MKVToolNix GUI's multiplexer: added an option to stop processing
after the primary video track ends called `--stop-after-video-ends`. This
discards any remaining packets of other tracks.
* MKVToolNix GUI: only on Windows: the GUI now uses Qt's "Fusion" style
instead of the deprecated "Windows Vista" style. The advantage is \
that as of
Qt 6.5 the "Fusion" style properly supports Windows 10's & 11's dark
application mode. The Windows binaries are now built with said Qt
version. Therefore the option to disable the dark mode has been
removed.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: automatically setting the destination file
name: added an option in the preferences for using the first source file's
directory name instead of its file name as the basis for the destination
file name.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: double-clicking on certain columns in the
"tracks" view will now toggle them directly (columns "Default \
track" &
"Forced track") or activate the corresponding control (columns \
"Language",
"Name" & "Delay"). Double-clicks on other columns will \
do what they've done
before, too: toggling the "Copy item" state.
* MKVToolNix GUI: the dialog for editing language tags is now created only the
first time the user wants to edit a language tag & cached afterwards instead
of creating a new instance each time. This makes subsequent uses instant.
Bug fixes
* mkvmerge: mkvmerge will now only try to probe for VobSubs if the name of the
file to identify ends in either `.idx` or `.sub`, preventing
mis-identification of other file types if VobSubs with the same base name
exist in the same directory.
* mkvmerge: AC-3: mkvmerge will now skip certain types of garbage data (16
bytes starting with 0x01 0x10) that can occur before each sync frame,
fixing the file not being identified as AC-3.
* mkvmerge: Matroska reader: when reading files that use block additions with
IDs other than 1 (e.g. 4 for HDR for VP9) the IDs will now be kept & written
to the output file. Before no ID would be written, effectively using 1 as
that's the default value for the corresponding element.
* mkvmerge: mkvmerge will no longer write block addition mappings or the max
block addition ID track header elements when creating a WebM file as those
elements aren't supported there.
* mkvpropedit: fixed replacing chapters & tags in files that don't contain
tracks.
