Create one mkv file instead of several

Post by Meneer Rene »

If I create a MKV file the tool is making a seperate file for each Title. Sure I can merge them using MKVtoolnix or something.

But isn't it posible to create just one file with Makemkv? Seems logical to me



Great tool by the way!!!

This is kind of the opposite of what most people ask for.

We'll have to see if Mike considers it.

I just want 1 mkv file for 1 (bluray) disk. Is that strange?

Actually, yes, because MKV files cannot include menus, so navigation would be problematic for "one MKV for the whole disk".

You would have logos and trailers and possible extras all in one huge MKV file. How would you want to navigate in that?

I understand what you mean but in many cases I just want to play the (music) movie (or the menu is missing). In these cases one mkv file is sufficient. Would be handy for me if the option was there.
