Heyo!

here’s a small, new MKVToolNix release, v87. Not a lot going on, to be honest. See below for details!

You can download the source code or one of the packages. The Windows packages and macOS disk image as well as the Linux AppImage are available already. The other Linux packages are still being built and will be available over the course of the next couple of hours.

Here are the NEWS since the previous release:

New features and enhancements

• mkvmerge: chapters: added support for specifying MPLS files with --chapters, too, not just as regular source files. The documentation stated this was possible already, but that wasn’t actually the case. Implements/fixes #3735.
• MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: added a progress dialog that is shown during file identification.
• MKVToolNix GUI: jobs: the status bar now differentiates between numbers of warnings/errors that occurred in the current session and those that occurred before the current session. Implements #3732.

Bug fixes

• mkvmerge: AAC parser: LOAS/LATM streams: if the first AudioSpecificConfig element is not found within the first LOAS/LATM frame, mkvmerge will no longer discard the frames before it but defer parsing them until after it has found the AudioSpecificConfig element. Fixes #3727.
• MKVToolNix GUI: job queue: fixed the GUI crashing when re-ordering the jobs in the job queue. This regression was introduced while fixing #3720. Fixes #3729.

Have fun!
