Description

Summary of the enhancement request:

The Matroska specification states "All level 1 elements should include a CRC-32." ​http://matroska.org/technical/specs/index.html

I propose supporting an option to add CRC sub-elements while muxing to MKV. Just a dream.

What for? Is there even anything that checks these CRC elements?

comment:2 by dave rice, 11 years ago

ACtually I'm not sure and do have the same question. However based on the upcoming work at the Preforma project, ​http://preforma-project.eu/, I think the development of a Matroska implementation checker would feasibly cover this feature. The use of Matroska within a digital preservation context makes the CRC feature very interesting.

Anyone interested in working on adding crc support to the mkv muxer if this can be sponsored?

Here is a sample Matroska file with Level 1 CRC Elements. ​http://archive.org/download/159753000/blackpool_1-0_manutd-regmo.blogspot.com.mkv

mediainfo can now verify EBML CRC-32 elements in Matroska. I also note that mkvclean can write level 1 CRC-32 elements while re-muxing.
