MKVToolNix v28.1.0 released

Hey,

due to an unfortunate bug in the AV1 sequence header parser in release 28.0.0, here’s a small bug fix update: MKVToolNix v28.1.0.

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

Here are the NEWS since the previous release:

Bug fixes

  • mkvmerge: AV1 parser: fixed an error in the sequence header parser if
    neither the reduced_still_picture_header nor the
    frame_id_numbers_present_flag is set. Part of the fix for #2410.
  • mkvmerge: AV1 parser: when creating the av1C structure for the Codec
    Private element the sequence header OBU wasn’t copied completely: its common
    data (type field & OBU size among others) was missing. Part of the fix for
    #2410.
  • mkvmerge: Matroska reader, AV1: mkvmerge will try to re-create the av1C
    data stored in Codec Private when reading AV1 from Matroska or WebM files
    created by mkvmerge v28.0.0. Part of the fix for #2410.
  • MKVToolNix GUI: info tool: the tool will no longer stop scanning elements
    when an EBML Void element is found after the first Cluster element. Fixes
    #2413.

Have fun :)
