Download MKVToolnix 9.0.1

Version 9.0.1 of MKVToolNix has been released. This collection of open source programs allows viewing, editing and conversion of Matroska files. For example, sound tracks and subtitles can be added, removed or set as default. They are separate command line tools, but a graphical user interface is also included. Versions are available for download for Windows, many Linux distributions, and OS X. The changelog for this release is as follows:

Released v9.0.1 “Obstacles”.

• mkvmerge: bug fix: regression in v9.0.0: the text subtitle packetizer was wrongfully assuming an encoding of UTF-8 if none was given instead of assuming the system’s encoding. Fixes #1639.
• mkvmerge: bug fix: if too many chapters had been generated with –generate-chapters then mkvmerge created a bogus entry in the meta seek element and did not actually write the chapters to the file.
• mkvmerge: bug fix: the DTS packetizer was setting the number of channels wrong sometimes when reducing to the DTS core. It was using the number of channels including the extensions instead of the channels of the core only.
