@autodidact Many thanks from another Windows 7 user

[Vihefo]

Thank you, thank you all the builders and their builds which work in Win7/8.1.

It's been a long time since I last logged in here, just to say kudos, though I do visit VideoHelp and Doom9 as usual but too lazy to log in.

Please continue making builds compatible with Win7/8.1 as long as possible.

I am finally able to use an MKVToolNix version greater than v68 now.

I only recently found out about these after reading a Reddit post where HubbleC4 replied and pointed out the Doom9 Forum counterpart.

Belated thanks to autodidact.

Been too busy lately, and also having to deal with Windows 8.1 on a second-hand laptop.

I still am tweaking the g0dd@mn thing to make it usable.

One thing to note about Windows 8.1 with regards to mkvtoolnix is that the CLI programs from the Qt6 based official build do work.
It is only the GUI that does not work.

Of course that is no consolation for having to use Windows 8.1.

Here is release version 73.0.0.

I wonder if someday the Qt5 builds are sooner available than the Qt6 ones

Thank you, autodidact

[jpsdr]

Thanks again.

Ha ha! That would be a neat trick.

I'll have to work on that.

[Ennio]

I'll have to work on that.

Should you succeed, be so kind to let Mosu know a new version is expected

[fits79]

Here is release version 74.0.0.

A LOT OF THANKS that continue and support the mkvtoolnix to the oldest win7 pc's


It is easy to make me learn me too and make the original mkvtoolnic NOT win7 supported version make it supported by win7????

I added a link to this thread from MKVtoolnix. And also uploaded to https://www.videohelp.com/software/MKVToolNix/old-versions

Thanks.
If you can teach us how to do that.
Transform latest mkvtoolnix version into win7 compatible version.

[jpsdr]

Nice , thanks.

Thanks for the builds
For the record, it looks like this program is using Qt6 but it's working fine on Windows 7 and 8.1: https://github.com/Mercury13/unicodia

There are known methods for making some Qt6 based programs run on Windows 7/8.1. Those methods depend on a program being built dynamic/shared and that it use only a limited set of Qt libraries. MKVtoolnix for Windows is built statically and it links to quite a few Qt libraries which generally precludes the use of those methods. A dynamic/shared build of MKVtoolnix could be tested though if someone were so inclined.
