Software-update: MKVToolNix 42.0.0

Moritz Bunkus heeft versie 42 van MKVToolNix uitgebracht. Met dit opensourceprogramma kunnen matroska-bestanden bekeken, bewerkt en worden geconverteerd. Zo kunnen geluidssporen en ondertiteling worden toegevoegd, verwijderd of juist als standaard worden ingesteld. MKVToolNix is een verzameling afzonderlijke commandline-tools, maar er wordt ook een grafische gebruikersinterface meegeleverd. Downloads zijn beschikbaar voor Windows, diverse Linux-distributies en macOS. De changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:

New features and enhancements

• mkvmerge: added an option for creating byte-identical files:
  --deterministic <seed>. Part of the implementation of #2698.
• mkvmerge: Matroska reader: mkvmerge will remove the icpf atom headers if
  they’re present in frames read from Matroska files. Implements #2692.
• mkvmerge: MP4 reader: ALAC tracks: the number of channels, sampling
  frequency and bit depth are now taken from the bitstream in order to fix
  bogus values on the container level. Implements #2714.
• mkvpropedit: when changing track UIDs the referring elements in existing
  chapters & tags will be updated automatically, too. Part of the
  implementation of #2700.
• mkvinfo: when the option -p/--hex-positions is used, element positions
  will be output regardless of the verbosity level. Part of the implementation
  of #2713.
• mkvinfo: added the option -P/--positions for showing the position of
  each element in decimal regardless of the verbosity level used. Part of the
  implementation of #2713.
• mkvinfo: added the option -o/--continue for continuing processing when
  the first cluster is encountered regardless of the verbosity level
  used. Part of the implementation of #2713.
• mkvinfo: added the option -a/--all for outputting all sub-elements (even
  cues & seek head entries) and not stopping at the first cluster regardless
  of the verbosity level used. Part of the implementation of #2713.
• MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: added an option in the preferences for
  disabling adding cover images from Blu-ray discs. Implements #2693.
• MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: added mkvmerge’s new --deterministic option
  in the "additional command-line options" dialog. Part of the implementation
  of #2698.
• MKVToolNix GUI: header editor:: when changing track UIDs the referring
  elements in existing chapters & tags will be updated automatically,
  too. Part of the implementation of #2700.

Bug fixes

• mkvmerge: HEVC ES parser: fixed a bug in the slice parser calculating the
  size of a field which in turn could have led to the slice’s type being read
  wrong. Patch by Torsten Hauska. Fixes #2710.
• mkvmerge: Matroska reader: fixed a segmentation fault when trying to read a
  file that uses header removal compression but no removed bytes are present
  in the track headers. Fixes #2687.
• mkvmerge: MPEG elementary stream parser: fixed an invalid memory access and
  use of uninitialized memory that could happen under certain
  circumstances. Fixes #2690.
• mkvmerge: RealMedia reader: fixed a division by zero when all audio
  timestamps were zero. Fixes #2689.
• mkvmerge: RealMedia reader: fixed an invalid memory access in the video
  frame assembly code triggered by invalid data in the file. Fixes #2691.

Build system changes

• std::optional (C++17 feature) is now used instead of boost::optional.
• std::regex is now used instead of boost::regex.

Other changes

• New man page translations into French, Italian, Russian and Chinese
  Traditional have been added.
