MKV Demux/Muxing into MP4, No Video Playback

[dunnuck]

Alright, so I made an account to ask this question, as I am pulling my hair out at this issue I'm having.

I used MKVExtractGUI-2.2.2.8 to unpack an MKV file. The two files extracted read as follows:

Persona 4 The Animation Ep.01 - You're myself, I'm yourself_track1_und.h264
Persona 4 The Animation Ep.01 - You're myself, I'm yourself_track2_eng.aac

Using YAMB, I muxed the files together and I proceeded to do this for the entirety of the show. However, when I played back the mp4 file, only the audio would work. I was presented with naught but a black screen and some crisp audio.

I tried uploading it into Sony Vegas (which is why I am dong all of this), and there is no video there, either.

Try mymp4boxgui also. I think yamb is using an older version of mp4box.


Or try mkv2mp4.

Just tried and no luck. I'm still having the same exact problem.

I should also mention that I have other mkv files that I have successfully converted without issue (except a little audio delay). I am unsure of what the problem could be, but the entire batch of episodes doesn't work.

EDIT: It's also worth adding that the file works just fine in VLC Player

POst the details from the mkv. Use media info, view->text.

since "[Daman]" is a warez video group you got the file from, we'll let the boss handle it however he wants.

What's a warez video group?
