Can't Separate Chapters into individual files

Post by smallpox »

I have several blu ray and DVD audio discs. MKV shows that there are chapters. but I can not get it to break them out into separate files (songs). It just records the whole album as one file. How do I get it to record each Chapter (song) as one file?

I found a fix from a previous post. Handbrake is a free program that will separate the chapters into individual files.

You can also search for "mkvtoolnix" and find a tool that will do it without re-encoding. For some people, when sticking MKV, the speed is more important than making the files smaller.

(of course, I advocate handbrake myself...)
