I don’t understand what is going on having a problem Multiplexing files


I am not sure what is going on I didn’t have any problems till I got to this set of video files in the folder and it keeps saying an error message but it doesn’t tell me what the error is and nothing else has worked since I got to this folder and I was merging these into one video file

Welcome!

You can see the error messages of your jobs in the “job output” tool you can click on in the left sidebar.

My guess based on the file names shown is that the automatic file name sequence detection thinks they belong to the same one logical file. You can try disabling it by going into the preferences → “Multiplexer” & disable the option “Detect file name sequences…”.

Then create new multiplex settings (or restart the application) & try what you did again.


I don’t understand what this is saying in the error section

Yeah this looks like what I was talking about. Disable the option I mentioned, try again.

How do I do that because I don’t really know much about this program

You can find the preferences in the “MKVToolNix GUI” menu. Then follow what I wrote above.

It still says the same thing and it says cannot be appended to the track number 0 and it also says this: the width of the two tracks are different 704 and 640 I don’t know what that means either

Then don’t append the files, add them instead. See this FAQ entry.

I don’t understand what that is saying to do it goes right over my head

I still can’t get some of these files to merge into one

I still need help here because I looked at the link you gave me but I don’t really understand what it says to do and how to get mkvtoolnix to merge all the files into one and can someone please explain in simpler terms on how to do this please

I still don’t understand why this program is not working as it should be and why I keep getting the same error messages over and over again
