After some more research i found out im not alone with the corruption problem.

https://gitlab.com/mbunkus/mkvtoolnix/-/issues/3416

I added my experience to the ticket and provided a test file.

For now i can say, using mkvtoolnix / mkvpropedit V71.0 / V71.1 is not safe to use for some files, at least under linux. Not sure about the windows versions.

For now i downgraded to mkvtoolnix / mkvpropedit V70.0, processing my testfile was ok with this version.

 

Unfortunaly this does not solved my problems with mediainfo 1.0.1.14 (for movies).

Debug log 1.0.1.14:

For now i can say, using mkvtoolnix / mkvpropedit V71.0 / V71.1 is not safe to use for some files, at least under linux. Not sure about the windows versions.

For now i downgraded to mkvtoolnix / mkvpropedit V70.0, processing my testfile was ok with this version.

After 362 of my mkv are corrupted, I have to say there is something wrong with v71.1, since I have ruled out bad drives or file system.

Thanks for reporting this and including the link, I think the issue is not limited to Linux because on my Windows 11 I am also experiencing this corruption (but who knows if the trigger of corruption is the same). I will try to upload a pair of files to compare before and after. Luckily I made a copy of my drives before running Mediainfo so the "before" files are available and it's not a catastrophic loss yet.

But still, since the corruption is spread across multiple drives. the thought of replacing 362 files manually is a bit daunting so maybe a "batch fix" can be developed to scan, identity and replace the corrupted files once the root cause is identified 😢

What worries me is, what if some files are already corrupted by mkvtoolnix but they don't appear on the Emby log? Is there a way to perform a full scan of these corrupt files before I delete my temporary backup? Hmm...

@rbjtechI agree with you, perhaps it's best not to reset or touch the files first until it's properly diagnosed. I will try all your suggestions  such as using mediabrowser GUI and mkvtoolnix GUI to open the "corrupt" files.

@Cheesegeezer I am away from home but as soon as I get back I will figure out a way to send you more meaningful logs (after I figure out how to batch remove the porn entries first 🤣) By the way, I don't believe HDR-SDR convert task is turned on so I am not sure why FFMpeg / FFProbe was involved. By the way, how do I get a "mediainfo json output"? I think the option maybe is easily available as an option and when I get back to the server, hopefully I will find it right away.

Very useful info.  Thanks.

Yes - I am using v 61.0.0 still .. hence I am ok.

So the corruption is a consequence of using v71 of mkvpropedit from mkvtoolnix... :(

I guess this is totally outside of emby or the plugin's control - so other than maybe it checking it's version is not v71 (?) - there is not a lot we can do ?

Phew! I was getting really worried there. Thanks @Andy2k. 
i will put in a check to ensure that if version > 70 then mediaInfo will not run.

as for the null exception in tv shows i started tracking this yesterday and know where it’s located i need to figure out what is actually null.

cheers

A release is on it's way shortly.  quite a bit maintenance done and also some nice features added. 

V1.0.1.16 - will be released Shortly.

  1. Namely the Library Selector instead of the switches for TV and Movies.  
  2. Checks are in for MKVPropEdit Versions
  3. Logging has been cleaned up
  4. Multi-version support 
  5. Logging clean up and improvements
  6. Remove Auto run library scans and Metadata scans.  User will have to set up a Schedule Task for these.

Hoping that this release will fix everyones problems and issues.

I'm quite excited about this.

I'm quite excited about this.

I am also quite excited about the enhancements.

If I understood correctly, the "Library Selector" function can be used for "testing" or "validating" MKVPropEdit working version first instead of letting Mediainfo use it on whole bunch of files that may be "assaulted" and eventually corrupted by a bad version/update.

For example, now that I have a whole bunch of files that are known to have been corrupted by MKVPropEdit before, I would group them into a folder and create a new library. Before I would run MediaInfo on the main libraries, I will test Mediainfo on this "corrupt candidate" files first and read the log files or use MKVinfo GUI to open them, whatever is needed to ensure NOTHING is wrong, and only then Mediainfo would be safely deployed to the rest of the library.

I was lucky in a way that Mediainfo hangs (for whatever reasons) several times during the scans in the last few days so total files corrupted by MKVPropEdit are "ONLY" 😂 limited to 350+ files. But had the process gone on, the effect might have been disastrous. This leads me to think that Mediainfo should have another "safeguard" in place @Cheesegeezer. Maybe as soon as "Error in FFprobe" is detected then the scan would be halted?

Of course this safeguard maybe entirely redundant because MKVPropEdit had never failed before and this was just an isolated incidence. But if this type of instability inherently exists for a third-party tool from time to time, I think it's better to at least have an option for users of Mediinfo to turn on or off this safeguard. Just something to think about.

Although 350+ corrupted files is not "too late" for me as I have backup copies of most of them, but I wouldn't want the same to happen to others. In fact, as of now, I still don't know how to batch replace these files, because they are not even readable by MKVToolNix GUI or mediainfo GUI.

Especially if the MKVPropEdit corruption is random in nature, and does not impact specific files or type of encoding at all, then this "Halt scan if error is detected" is crucial safeguard against some third party tool.

The safeguard in MKVprop is hard coded to be less than 70. What could be done is give the user the option to override this for testing purposes. 
 

mediaInfo doesn’t need the safeguard as its not editing it only reads info. So the worst that would happen is the title would written wrong. 
 

@rbjtech has been testing this version and it sounds like it definitely a winner winner chicken dinner 👍👍💪💪💪💪
 

there should be only 2 errors in MKVpropedit. Code 1 and code 2.

a code 1 means the task completed successfully but some warnings are present. So we should allow this.

a code 2 is a fail. And we don’t allow it and the item is removed from the processed list

your code 134 should never be possible so i would never have caught it anyway.

Quote from mkvpropedit

Quote

6. Exit codes

mkvpropedit(1) exits with one of three exit codes:

  • 0 -- This exit code means that the modification has completed successfully.

  • 1 -- In this case mkvpropedit(1) has output at least one warning, but the modification did continue. A warning is prefixed with the text 'Warning:'. Depending on the issues involved the resulting files might be ok or not. The user is urged to check both the warning and the resulting files.

  • 2 -- This exit code is used after an error occurred.  mkvpropedit(1) aborts right after outputting the error message. Error messages range from wrong command line arguments over read/write errors to broken files.

The 'per library' option does indeed give you many more options for testing.

But it has been made clear on the plugin config page and should be reasonably self-evident, that if you deploy a 3rd part tool to modify ALL your media files, it would probably be a good idea with ANY utility to test it first .. 🙄

Short of creating another emby instance (as I did), this would have been 'difficult' to do with the previous verions I agree - as the only options were all of TV or all of Movies. 

Now you can create a test library - and use that for new releases of mkvtoolnix and/or mediainfo.  (if and when you want to upgrade them for some reason).

The plugin version .16 is working very well for me (*) - using Windows mkvproedit v61 but will not run if  v71 has been downloaded.

I don't believe the plugin can do anymore to safeguard the use of a 3rd party utility.

(*) Issue with multi-version re-processing reported - but everything else looks fantastic.

@mbguy

It is not totaly random, as i know the corruption depends on certain programs used to make the .mkv. But i dont have any idea how to "filter out" these files.

 

@cheesgeezer

As soon as a new version of mkvtoolnix is up, i will do some tests to make sure the new version is bugfree. I will keep you up to date.

but i would need to give the user an override mkv version option. Then…

bombard them with about a thousand alerts and messages warning them about this.

Then get them to agree to terms and conditions and

then give another 20 windows of…. are you sure….. are you really sure… are you really sure you’re sure… are you absolutely sure your really sure that you’re sure 

hahahahaha 😂🤪🤪🤯🫣

Maybe worth trying ffmpeg or some of the mature stream tools such as eac3to (-demux) or tsmuxer to demux the streams - and then remux.

If the headers really have been fried by mkvpropedit - and the streams are not even identifiable, then I fear recovery may be impossible. 😪

If you can share one of the corrupt files via PM link - then I'm happy to spend a few minutes to see if I can recover it and advise my method if successful..

With the limited time that I could review, I am seeing two types of "corruption". Based on MKVToolNix GUI, one set of files don't have any video or audio streams. Another set of corrupted files show Audio stream only, no video stream. So it seems like more than just headers that have been "fried" and I don't have high hopes these can be repaired. But I am still hoping for a mircale.

I agree that with the new Mediainfo "Library" function now, further safeguards may not be necessary. But this is only if a selection of sample test files happen to be what future MKVToolNix / FFMpeg / FFProbe bugs affect. For example, I could even put 100 files into my test library, but if a future bug affects a specific way of encoding or resolution or something specific that is not covered by the scenarios of these 100 sample files, the same issue of file corruption on an unknown number of files remain.

Having said that, I don't mean to trouble you guys with useless concerns that may not ever happen again. I will look into the "hard-coded" MKVProp 70 errors limit, it didn't seem to apply in my case, because every scan produced hundreds of errors before they paused.

This 70 check will be in the next release.  It's not available just yet.

I've found this.  So I doubt I can check the version using C#.  Hopefully Softworkz may have a solution... he's awesome with this stuff. 

Short answer:
The FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo() method attempts to read VERSIONINFO resource data from a Win32 PE binary executable image.

On Windows, most executables are PE images which may or may not contain a VERSIONINFO structure.
On macOS and Linux, most (but not all) executables are Mach-O and ELF images respectively, which do not contain a VERSIONINFO structure at all.
.NET assemblies always use the PE format, however, which means they can contain a VERSIONINFO structure in their resources section.
This means that on Mac or Linux you can use FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo() to read only PE executable files, with the additional caveat that (as of April 2021) only .NET assemblies specifically can be read, and not non-.NET assembly PE executables) can be read. Because ELF and Mach-O executables do not contain a Win32 resources section you cannot use FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo() on those kinds of executables.

The "Short Answer" is accurate.

There is no standardized way for version number indication with ELF binaries. 

The only way I can think of is to execute such binary with a parameter like --version or similar when it supports that. Most Linux CLI executables support this because, well - there's no other common way to determine the version.

I managed to get the version from interrogating the version what is returned by using a CLI command in the mkvpropedit process.  Hopefully it works for MAC and Linux users.

Hmmmm @Andy2k

It looks like your json file isn't getting populated.  or it's crap.

open one of those items in MediaInfo. and then click on View and JSON

image.png.d4ba1d5a52744acddbdfa05065ace522.png

then click anywhere in the json output --> Ctrl A (select all) and then ctrl C (copy)

image.png.0a6243c659e8acdb49af15d898438a5a.png

 

then paste in a code block or quote here on the forum
