Debian packages
Alex February 18, 2020 at 22:43. Hey, maybe you can help me or give me a hint. I used the macos version of mkvtoolnix. If i convert a wave to ac3 with the compressor app, because adobe wont support dolby anymore and want to mux it, mkvtoolnix show me the ac3 is a videofile. How can I run the command-line programs on macOS? When you're using the MKVToolNix disk image I provide, you can run the command-line programs while the disk image is mounted. All of the programs that are part of the MKVToolNix package are located in. I provide amd64 binaries for MKVToolNix for all releases and i386 binaries for 18.04. I do not provide binaries for libEBML and libMatroska anymore as they're already part of the official distribution. If those are too old MKVToolNix even bundles the current version of both libraries.
I provide i386 and Amd64 binaries for MKVToolNix for Debian 10 'buster' (the current stable).

You first have to import my public GPG key because all of my pools are signed. Run this once: sudo wget -O /usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg https://mkvtoolnix.download/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg
You can access the packages by adding the lines below to a file such as /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mkvtoolnix.download.list
:
Version | APT source |
---|---|
Debian 10 (aka 'buster') | deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ buster main deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.gpg] https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/ buster main |
Now simply run sudo apt update
followed by sudo apt install mkvtoolnix mkvtoolnix-gui
.
If updating the package lists fails, make sure you have the package apt-transport-https
installed.
Debian 8 'Jessie' and 9 'stretch': you can get versions up to v38.0.0 (for Stretch) and v29.0.0 (for Jessie) from my repositories.
Version | APT source |

If you're looking for older Debian or MKVToolNix releases, you can look through the repository directory yourself.

Hey y’all,
let’s do a second release in January, fixing a couple of annoyances that crept in lately. Just a smaller maintenance release; nothing earth shattering. But see for yourself down below.
Nothing’s changed for package managers.
You can download the source code or one of the binaries. The Windows and macOS binaries as well as the Linux AppImage are available already. The other Linux binaries are stil being built and will be available over the course of the next couple of hours.
Mkvtoolnix Written In
Here are the NEWS since the previous release:
New features and enhancements
Mkvtoolnix Mac Os
- MKVToolNix GUI: using one of the command line options
--info
,--edit-headers
or--edit-chapters
will make the GUI select the
corresponding tool on startup even if no further file name is
given. Implements #2723. - MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: added a setting in the preferences for changing
the location of the MediaInfo executable for when the user accidentally
selected the wrong one.
Bug fixes
- mkvmerge: AVC/h.264 parser: the order of the NALUs before each key frame was
sometimes wrong: mkvmerge wrote SPS & PPS after SEI NALUs. Now SPS & PPS
NALUs are always written before the other NALUs. Patch by Torsten
Hauska. Part of the implementation of #2709 and part of the fix of #2250. - mkvmerge: AVC/h.264 parser: when additional SPS or PPS NALUs (with IDs that
haven’t been seen so far) are found mid-stream, mkvmerge will prepend all
following key frames with all current valid SPS & PPS NALUs (just like when
SPS & PPS NALUs are overwritten mid-stream). Part of the fix of #2250. - mkvmerge: MPEG TS reader: fixed detection of MPEG-1/2 video tracks
consisting of very few frames. Fixes #2732. - mkvmerge: Ogg Opus reader: fixed the handling of Ogg Opus streams that
contain a just one Ogg page (mkvmerge
aborted with an exception). Fixes
#2722. - MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: dragging & dropping XML files with chapters or
tags to the GUI’s window was broken in v42. Instead of adding the file names
to the appropriate input boxes the GUI was running mkvmerge for file
identification purposes which then failed. Fixes #2718.
Have fun :)
