SolveigMM MKV/Matrosska DierctShow Demuxer + Muxer Testing

Hello lolapaluuza,

Thank you for your post.
Please email us to info(at)solveigmm(dot)com to discuss details.

Oh, is it possible to implement some of your components to my application? It would be really convenient

Hi Javier,

HRESULT: 0x80040217 (2147746327)

Am i right that you try to develop some aplicacation with our components. In this case you need to use SolveigMM Video Ediitng SDK
http://www.solveigmm.com/en/products/video-editing-sdk/.

Full version have all necessary documentation and inludes technical support pack. To acquire that  please contact us by email.

Hello Javier,

the first problem:

"RTSP Source" i've found a lot of,  where can i get it ?
I need to reproduce this on my end to see which mediatypes it gives on output pin. It could be that it has many mediatypes. And muxer gets the first one.
i see the file was muxed with "V_MS/VFW/FOURCC" codecId string (for complete list see matroska codec specs).
That's why i suppose mediatype was FORMAT_VideoInfo, because there is no any codecs private data.
And that's why this file is playing only in vlc because others expect this private data.

for correct muxing AVC1 video mediatype should be formatType == FORMAT_MPEG2Video with MPEG2VIDEOINFO structure with correct dwSequenceHeader - which will contain avc1 codec private data.


the second:
if in graphedit SMM_MKV_Muxer and SMM File Writer connects fine, I think the problem is in the code that connect it.
Are you sure that you connect Output pin of muxer with filewriter, because the muxer has 2 pins ?
We can assist you if the problem will be reproduced in graphedit.

Waiting for your comments.

Hi,

here you have the file: http://www.2shared.com/video/DqlJkiDc/example.html

However, we are trying to implement the recording graph in a C++ library. We have found that using GraphEdit we can record without problems but when we try to code this, we cannot match the Mux Filter with the file writer (nor the Ds File Writer, neither the Solveig MM file Writer).

 HRESULT: 0x80040217 (2147746327)

Thank you!

Hello Javier,

You can upload the file to any file host service, e.g. to dropbox.com.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Dmitry,

First of all, thank you for the immediacy of your response.

We have tried the Axis H264 Video Decoder and ffdshow Video Decoder and we have obtained the same result.

Where could I upload an example file?

Best regards,

Javier Almendrote

Hi Javier,

Thank you for your interest to our software. Actually you should not encounter any problems in such a configuration.
What video decoder do you use? Could you upload us a sample of such a file?

Hi,

We are developing an application in order to save live streaming video.

We are using the directshow filters SolveigMM File Writer and SolveigMM Matroska Muxer and we are trying to record Axis cameras H264 video streams.

We make the directshow graph RTSP Source --> SMM Matroska Muxer --> SMM Filewriter and we craft properly the .mkv file but when we want to playback, we only can play it with the VLC application. If we want to play the resulting file with directshow we can construct the graph without problems (file source --> SSM Matroska Splitter --> Video Renderer), we can do the play action, but we get a black screen all the time we are playing the video.

Is there any reason for that?

Thanks in advance!

Javier Almendrote

Updates  splitter version - 1.0.1012.30 / muxer version 1.0.1012.29:

SMM Matroska Splitter/Muxer x86

SMM Matroska Splitter/Muxer x64

Changes/Fixes:

Splitter:
- make separate pins for all streams - apply without reconnect
- can't seek after language switch
- "No Subtitles" should be selected if none of other sub streams have default/forced flag set
- zlib compressed PGS Subtitles support

Muxer:
- Track Name, Language, Default  and Forced flags Selection in muxer prop page.

Also There is SMM MKV Muxer Sample Application   that demonstrates ability of the muxer and allows to remux video to mkv format.

Thank you. we will take allok. Do you need such a feature for some business application?

Ordered chapters is an awesome feature of MKV usually used by anime fansub groups. It allows you to encode the opening and/or ending sequences of a series into a file of their own, and then have the OP/ED automagically inserted into each episode at the appropriate places. This saves space, because instead of encoding the OP/ED into every episode, they are only encoded once, so the main episode can be made smaller.

Hi tamastek,

Thank you for the questions and sorry for delayed answer.
Could you please explain in more detail what do you mean by ordered chapters? As far as I know the splitter have chapters support

Hi,
I have a question about the mkv splitter:
Would it be possible to add support for ordered chapters?
