Debian packages
I provide i386 and Amd64 binaries for MKVToolNix for Debian 10 'buster' (the current stable).
Office business for mac. MKS Extractor GUI. Extract Matroska subtitle files (MKS) from MKV files with a GUI. Wrapper for MKVToolNix. This tool is intended to use with Windows. Windows 7 (or newer) Visual C 2019 Redistributable; MKVToolNix; Instructions. Select your MKVToolNix directory. Drag&Drop your MKV files into the 'MKV Files' box.
- MKV is an advanced video container and one of its outstanding features is chapter and menu support. People can take advantage of this feature to quickly skip to key parts of a movie. But at the same time, when people download MKV movies, TV series, or concert videos from the Internet, some of them also want to split MKV by chapters.
- GMKVExtractGUI is a GUI for mkvextract utility (part of MKVToolnix) which incorporates most functionality of mkvextract and mkvinfo utilities. Written in C#.NET 4.0, in order to attain high compatibility (WinXP and newest Windows). Requires an installed copy of MKVToolnix.
Moom. I do not provide binaries for libEBML and libMatroska anymore as they're already part of the official distribution. If those are too old MKVToolNix even bundles the current version of both libraries.
You first have to import my public GPG key because all of my pools are signed. Run this once: sudo wget -O /usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg https://mkvtoolnix.download/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg
You can access the packages by adding the lines below to a file such as /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mkvtoolnix.download.list:
| Version | APT source |
|---|---|
| Debian 10 (aka 'buster') | deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ buster main deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ buster main |
Now simply run sudo apt update followed by sudo apt install mkvtoolnix mkvtoolnix-gui.
If updating the package lists fails, make sure you have the package apt-transport-https installed.
Debian 8 'Jessie' and 9 'stretch': you can get versions up to v38.0.0 (for Stretch) and v29.0.0 (for Jessie) from my repositories.
| Version | APT source |
|---|---|
| Debian 9 (aka 'Stretch') | deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ stretch main deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ stretch main |
| Debian 8 (aka 'Jessie') | deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ jessie main deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ jessie main |
If you're looking for older Debian or MKVToolNix releases, you can look through the repository directory yourself.
Clean up ram windows 7. I streamed a few DJ sets over the last few weeks with a bunch of friends as part of ‘covidcore’, an online get-together while we’re all in isolation. It’s been a while since I’ve played any DJ sets but it was great fun and thankfully I didn’t make too many mistakes.
Anyway, It was my first streaming experience and I found it a breeze to set up thanks to Twitch and OBS. When reviewing my recordings I noticed that my microphone level was pretty low so I decided to bust out the audio track from the video and raise it. Also when uploading my video to Youtube I also got a copyright notice about one the clips in my video which was subsequently being blocked, so I decided to edit that out too.
Here is how you can do it.
Mkv Extract Gui
Note: I’m on a mac so all of the instructions are for that, but apart from installation the rest should be platform agnostic.
Steps
- Install mkvtoolnix
- Extract audio and video tracks from mkv file
- Optionally convert audio track if editing needed
- Merge audio and video tracks back in to mkv file
Install mkvtoolnix
mkvtoolnix is a set of command line programs for finding out information and modifying mkv (“Matroska”) files. You can install it with a GUI but I didn’t bother.
That’s it, boom!
Mkv Converter
Extract audio and video tracks from mkv file
For this step we are going to run this command
In the above command we are using mkvextract, part of mkvtoolnix, to extract the video track which is encoded using the ‘h264’ codec and also the audio track which is encoded using the AAC codec.
In order to find out what your video and audio tracks were encoded with use the following tool
Might be good to reference the docs if you have trouble there.
Optionally convert audio track if editing needed
Mkv Gui Tool
My audio editor couldn’t open the aac file I created so I converted it to FLAC format using ffmpeg, another command line program that is insanely useful for converting audio formats (amongst other things).
So to convert I ran
Now I can open my flac file and edit the parts I want, like amplifying my microphone in the recording.
Merge audio and video tracks back in to mkv file
Right, now you have completed your editing we can stitch them back together again using the mkvmerge command
You can see I just merged the flac formatted audio back in. I just tried it and it worked. I need to read up a bit more on file formats to be honest so if you need more info check the docs.
Hope that helps someone :)
