changes: many fixes and improvements
pkgsrc note: This version hasn't been tested in practice yet. The
previous one had a problem with mkvmerge going into an endless loop.
We still have mkvtoolnix-old (2.9.8) as a known working one for
that reason.
* build system: Fixed building the Qt version of mkvinfo's GUI (again).
* mmg: bug fix: If the header editor finds 'language' elements with ISO-639-1
codes (e.g. "fra" instead of "fre" for "French") then it will map the code to
the corresponding ISO-639-2 code
* mmg: bug fix: Fixed one of the issues causing mmg to report that it is
configured to use an unsupported version of mkvmerge when the reported
version was actually empty.
* mkvmerge: enhancement: HD-DVD subtitles are recognized as being an
unsupported file format. This makes the error message presented to the user
a bit clearer.
* build: Boost 1.36.0 or newer is required (up from 1.34.0). Also fixed
building with v3 of Boost's filesystem library, e.g. with Boost 1.46.0
Beta 1 or newer.
* mkvpropedit: new feature: Added support for adding, replacing and removing
tags.
* all: Added a translation for the programs into Turkish by ßouЯock.
* build system: Fixed compilation if configure choses the internal versions of
libebml and libmatroska while older versions are still installed in a
location named with "-I..." or "-L..." in CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS/LDFLAGS or with
configure's "--with-extra-includes" and "--with-extra-libs" options.
Matroska files.
MKVtoolnix is a set of tools to create, alter and inspect Matroska files.
With these tools one can get information about (mkvinfo) Matroska files,
extract tracks/data from (mkvextract) Matroska files and create (mkvmerge)
Matroska files from other media files.
