I put my .mkv into mkvextractor to get a .h264 file when it was done
so I was wondering if there was a way to get a .h264 to .avi
I tried avc2avi but apparently my file isnt a raw .h264(I cant put it in the program)
mkvextract tracks "path/to/your/mkv.mkv" --raw 1:"path/to/output/file.264"Qyot27 wrote:Did you use the command-line MKVExtract or the GUI, because the GUI craps out on H.264*. I also seem to remember avc2avi being very specific about which extension it accepted. If .h264 doesn't work, rename it as simply .264 and see if that works.
In other words, you need to use the CLI to do this correctly, in which case the correct command is this (assuming the video is the first stream in the file):
- Code: Select all
mkvextract tracks "path/to/your/mkv.mkv" --raw 1:"path/to/output/file.264"
If --raw doesn't work, you could also try the --fullraw command.

It comes as part of the MKVToolNix package, and can be found in either the main MKVToolNix folder or whereever the GUI is, since the GUI is just a front-end for the command-line, but for some reason borks things like H.264 extraction up.
The newest version of MKVToolNix can be found here, though:

Seriously, what does putting it in AVI do that you can't do with MP4? If you are thinking of editing it, convert it to lossless.
Directshowsource is not frame accurate, it is ok for transcoding stuff, but editing with it will cause issues.
