Mkvtoolnix Merge Mkv



However, if you can merge these files into a single one MKV file, it will be much easier and more convenient to manage and share MKV files. In this article, you will get to know more information about the best MKV merge tools and how to join MKV files with MKVToolNix and other related merge programs. MKVToolNix is a software for Windows and Linux systems, combining a set of tools for creating and editing files in the MKV (Matroska) format. After I trimmed the files with MKVToolNix to my satisfaction, I merged them successfully again with MKVToolNix. From there I used handbrake to encode, and viola, I’ve got myself a pretty good cut/merge! Thanks all for the suggestions. I think the biggest one is make sure you do all the cuts/merges BEFORE you encode.

I’ve been ripping my DVD collection via handbrake to put into PLEX. I just came across my first DVD which was split between the two sides of the DVD.

So, half the movie is on Side A, and the other half is on Side B. I figured it’d be pretty easy to merge them together, but I am running into some issues.

  1. The first file that I’ve ripped has about 4 seconds of black screen I’d like to get rid of.
    -I can’t get MKVToolNix to split the file right where I want it because it apparently only splits at key frames. This makes it a few seconds wrong on either side of where I want to split it.

  2. At some point, I decided to just give up, and not worry about cutting a scene a second or two short. (Getting rid of the black still) So I decided to try and merge the first half of the movie and the second half together using MKVToolNix. I’ve followed some tutorials (but it seems like it’s pretty straight forward anyway) and when I click “remux” I am only greeted with errors. It never successfully merges them.

  3. I tried using VirtualDub, but that only works with AVI. I downloaded some plugins that allow me to open MKV’s, but it seems I can still only save AVI’s. (And when I tried to do that, it gave me an error anyway)

  4. I feel like this could be done with VirtualDub and AVI’s instead, but I’m worried about losing quality by changing over to AVI, doing the edits, then changing back to MKV. I also haven’t found reliable software that can convert for me. (Unless maybe handbrake can do it? I haven’t looked into that yet)

Anyway, I’m just curious if any of you have some great wisdom on how to do this seemingly simple task. Take a few seconds off the end of file 1, then merge the result with file 2.
