mkvtoolnix-29.0.0-2.fc29

FEDORA-2018-784a3c4e54 created by rathann 6 years ago for Fedora 29

Version 29.0.0 "Like It Or Not" 2018-12-01

New features and enhancements

  • MKVToolNix GUI: added an option in the preferences for disabling automatic scaling for high DPI displays. Implements #2415.
  • MKVToolNix GUI: the GUI will now prevent the system from going to sleep while the job queue is running. This feature is implemented for macOS, Windows and Linux/Unix systems where the org.freedesktop.login1.Manager D-Bus interface is available. Implements #2411.

Bug fixes

  • mkvmerge: chapter generation: the start timestamps of chapters generated in intervals was wrong for files whose smallest video timestamp was bigger than 0. Fixes #2432.
  • mkvmerge: MP4 reader: fixed handling of atoms whose size exceeds the parent atom's size. Fixes #2431.
  • mkvmerge, MKVToolNix GUI's chapter editor: the chapter name template will now also be used when reading Ogg-style chapter files with empty chapter names. Fixes #2441.
  • mkvextract: AAC: mkvextract will now write the program config element (PCE) before the first AAC raw data packet if the PCE is present in the AudioSpecificConfig structure in the Codec Private Matroska element. The PCE carries vital information about the number of channels and is required in certain cases. Fixes #2205 and #2433.
  • mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI's header editor: in situations when a one-byte space must be covered by a new EBML void element the following element must be moved up instead. If that moved element is a cluster, the corresponding cue entries will now be updated to reflect the cluster's new position. Fixes #2408.

Build system changes

  • Qt's D-Bus implementation is now required for building on systems other than macOS and Windows,
  • The boost::format library is not used anymore.
  • The fmt library is now required. Versions 3 and newer are supported.

With this update, opening an mkv file crashes gnome-shell. Reverting back to mkvtoolnix-gui-28.2.0-1.fc29.x86_64 resolves the issue.

@carlwgeorge thanks for the report, however none of the stack traces in your paste contain anything related to mkvtoolnix. Also, mkvtoolnix can't possibly be able to crash gnome-shell directly. I think it just exposed a bug in either gnome-shell or one of the drivers. Please report the crash via abrt (System Tools -> Problem Reporting) if possible. Does it happen only under Wayland or under Xorg as well? Does it happen with any other desktop environment?
