MKVToolNix is voorzien van een update naar versie 6.1.0. MKVToolNix is een collectie opensourceprogramma's waarmee Matroska-bestanden kunnen worden bekeken, bewerkt en geconverteerd. Zo kunnen geluidssporen en ondertiteling worden toegevoegd, verwijderd of juist als standaard worden ingesteld. Het zijn afzonderlijke commandline-tools, maar er wordt een grafische gebruikersinterface meegeleverd. Versies kunnen worden gedownload voor Windows, een groot aantal Linux-distributies en OS X. In deze release zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
Changes in version 6.1.0:
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed mkvmerge sometimes mistakenly detecting MPEG-1 video in MPEG program streams as AVC/h.264. Fixes #845.
- mmg: new feature: When a playlist file (e.g. MPLS Blu-ray playlist) is added mmg can optionally scan all the other files in the directory that have the same extension and present the user with the results (including them playback time, total size, number of chapters, number and types of tracks). The user can then select the actual playlist file to add. The user can configure the minimum playlist duration in order to filter out too short ones.
- mmg: new feature: Added an option for disabling making the suggested output file name unique by adding a running number (e.g. ' (1)'). Implements #848.
- mmg: new feature: The output file name can be auto-set to be located in the first input file's parent directory. Implements #849.
- mkvinfo, mkvpropedit, mmg's header editor: bug fix: Fixed the description for the DisplayUnit element to include value 3 ("aspect ratio").
- documentation: Added a Dutch translation of mmg's guide by René Maassen (see AUTHORS).
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed handling chapters when splitting by parts (both parts/timecodes and parts/frames). Fixes #831.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed reading certain MP4 atoms with invalid length fields.
- mkvmerge: bug fix in common AAC code: Fixed wrong calculation of AAC packet size for malformed packets resulting in "safemalloc()" failing to allocate memory. Part of a fix for #832.
- mkvmerge: new feature: Implemented support for reading MPLS BluRay playlist files. All M2TS files referenced from an MPLS file are processed. Chapter entries from that MPLS file are used as well. Implements #765.
- mmg: bug fix: Selecting one of the pre-defined values from the "split by X" argument drop down box (e.g. "700M") was not leaving the selected entry in the drop down box but set it to empty instead.
- mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed reading VP6 video from FlashVideo files. Fixes #836.
- mmg: bug fix: Fixed validating the argument for splitting parts by frame/field numbers. Fixes #835.
