I am so tired. My day has ranged from fun discussing China, depressing listening about Human Trafficking to soul crushing listening to my HIV teacher describe one of his patients who died coughing up blood in his arms due to a co-infection of HIV and Hep-C.
How was your day [chat]?
oh yeah those are rough. my mom was a HIV nurse in baltimore back in the early 90s

she's got stories!
This guy was and is an HIV doctor. He worked in the HIV ward in public Hospital from 1992-1998. He still runs a private practice. He also consults for ngos and the health administration in some central Asian countries where they are basically still in the plague years of HIV.
My mom was a hospice nurse during this time as well. But no matter how many stories I hear, they are still depressing. I am not sure how you get over someone dying in your arms like that.
You guys, MKV is so good that we need special programs to extract the H.264 stream in real time, then analyze it and stream it out to devices in a more manageable form.
Best format ever.
That's just regular incompatibility. Gonna always happen. I'm not married to MKV but that's what I have to work with if I don't want to transcode into a second format. I'm at least glad I have the option to remux
It's not just regular incompatibility. You should see the effort that Plex has to put into streaming MKVs when going file server to PC on computer networks. And playback still will stutter from time to time, even though the mean bitrate of the video is within the network's capability. It's just kind of a crummy format and I've never been particularly happy with it. MP4 by contrast frontloads special metadata so that even if the server is bandwidth limited and knows nothing about the contents of the video, the client can make smart choices about how it loads and plays the file. It was designed by people who knew what the hell they were doing and had practical uses and real devices in mind.
So say I remux the file myself, and take the video and audio out of the MKV container and put it in an MP4. Will that achieve the same thing as fully transcoding it as far as these advantages are concerned? Because remuxxing is a hell of a lot faster than transcoding and I'd do that if there were any gains.
Well, the plex server / app combo will probably strip it anyway, since they have that whole server thing going. It's easier to design one good streaming server and 12 modular container format parsers than it is to design multiple streaming setups for the formats that stream well.
But sure. If you were to convert the MKVs to MP4s without transcoding and throw those files on an HTTP server or something, they would stream to most iOS and Android devices with no special software at all. Which is how the technology was designed to function.
It's just that I picked PLEX in the first place because Air Video doesn't support 1080p yet. If PLEX is already taking care of me I don't need to look for better compatibility, you know?
You don't need to listen to me. I am just ranting about things that I am well aware that no one cares about. You found something that works and maintains maximum quality, which is what you wanted. Nothing else matters.
Well now I am curious, because even the remux process uses some CPU during streaming and might slow down seeking. It's possible my experience could be even better and I like learning about this stuff so I'll try remuxxing an MKV into an MP4.
Is there a word for when you plan carefully, execute well, try hard and everything still goes just about as poorly as it possibly could? Because there should be.

your HIV stories are probably amateur-hour, people dying quickly and without too much agony

There's minimax, which is the strategy where you assume everything is going to go to shit so you design your plans to make the worst case as good as it can be (at the possible expense of amazing outcomes if things were to go well). But that's only kind of related.

No just dumping because fuck it was depressing.
I also think I might be crazy because I kind of want to intern at his non-profit that helps HIV patients work through the insurance system and get treatment.

MKV is designed to support a very wide spread of codecs - I'll bet you have MKV's which are being heavily transcoded to be streamed, not just remux'd. If you have an MP4 file conversely, there's not really a particularly wide-range of things it can contain.

Man I can't find a Windows alternative to this OSX app that will mux MKVs into MP4s. I don't want to have to transfer these big ass files to my Mac! That is for losers!
