Hello everybody, I've some mkv and ogm clips that I want to edit with TMPGEnc Xpress 4 but these formats are not supported. So I need to demux the clips (they contain audio and subtitles in foreign language that I don't want to keep) and then mux those tracks that I want to edit to another format. I have no idea what software I need to demux/mux Matroskas, so please help me with your knowledge. Please keep your answers not too complicated as I'm not very experienced. Greetings, Herwig
In the meantime I was able to de-multiplex one mkv file with MKVExtractGUI. The result was a video.h264 file and an audio.ogg file. This mkv did not contain other parts. But now I don't know how to proceed further to get, preferrably, an mpg file or another format that is accepted as input by the editor. Greetings, Herwig
If you want to encode the MKV with Tmpgenc 4 xpress, install Avisynth. When it's installed create a one-line text file with text similar to this: directShowSource("c:\yourpath\yourfile.mkv",fps=25) (update the path and filename to match your file, and set the fps= to the actual frame rate) Save the text file and then rename it to myfile.avs Open this avs file in Tmpgenc.
@davexnet Many thanks for this expert advice as it works perfectly to open a Matroska file in TMPGEnc Xpress 4. Can you also help with the next problem in this context? The video has two audiotracks in different languages. After opening the clip in TMPGEnc Xpress 4 it plays in the wrong language and does not allow a selection of English. Matroska with only one language works perfectly. Herwig
Install mkvtoolnix. Open the mkv with mkvmerge. Deselect the streams you don't need and save mkv to a new file. Use that in the avisynth script.
@davexnet With your help I was successful at the first attempt. I thank you very much for your advice. Greetings, Herwig
