At long last, some semblance of support for Matroska/WebM files. Unfortunately, this is release took forever to develop and even then it's only read-only support. The primary reason for the delay is that the original .NET implementation was very difficult to comprehend and required a lot of rewriting. What's worse is that the Matroska tagging format is very open ended, but in such a way as to make it very complicated to derive a "unified" tagging interface. Please provide feedback if you find the unified tagging interface is not satisfactory.

New Features/Fixes

  • Matroska/WebM read-only support
    • If you try to write a mkv/webm file, it'll throw an error

Not Really Breaking Changes, But Stuff You Should Be Aware Of

  • Official builds are now done using Node 14.21.x. I still plan to target 12.16.1 as the minimum version.
