#351 closed enhancement (fixed)

Make Matroska cluster size configurable

Description

When using '-vcodec ffv1 outfile.mkv', I use mkvalidator to check the resulting file which lists warnings for every cluster.

Making a ffv1 in mkv: http://pastebin.com/dhAHLpvc

Warnings from mkvalidator that first frame is cluster is not keyframe: http://pastebin.com/TJHtaAvY (aren't all ffv1 frames keyframes)

Same file in mkvtree: http://pastebin.com/cZ3bjF7M

Could you make 0011TS.mov available?

comment:4 by dave rice, 13 years ago

I probably shouldn't (not my file), but I think this occurs on any file. Perhaps I can produce one with the new testsrc filter.

comment:5 by reimar, 13 years ago

aren't all ffv1 frames keyframes

No, they depend on the arithmetic coding state of previous frames unless you use -g 1.
The matroska encoder opens a new cluster at the latest after 5 MB of data. Since your ffv1 frames are very large it can't do that without creating some clusters without keyframes.
This could probably be improved/made configurable in the muxer, but those are only warnings after all.

Replying to reimar:

Thanks for the explanation of the 5MB limit. For now, I'll look into using '-g 1' or 'mkclean --remux' on the result.

I believe this was implemented by Luca in 2013 and merged in ac957bc6
