remove Wx dependency & build on Windows

[cbielow]

I was looking for a tool to fix my broken MKV (VLC would play it, but Handbrake would not convert it) -- and meteorite did the job.

To get it to build on Windows I removed the unnecessary wx-includes in meteorite.h -- I hope the GUI will still build, but it should because the includes are also present in other headers (not tested though -- I don't have wxWidgets installed).

I used the Windows g++ that comes with R-win (gcc 4.6.) and meteorite-cli.exe builds just fine using

make cli

now (I fixed the inner workings of the makefile; it should run on any gnu make though -- also not tested -- no Linux around atm).

Hope this helps.

cheers

Dear Chris,

I thank you very much for your removed unneccessary wx line from meteorite-cli.cpp code.

Although I did try very hard, I hadn’t been compiling to windows binary cli-code of Andrew. Now, I tried to your fixed the code on many GCC builds for compile. Finally, the meteorite-cli.exe is compiled. But the all compilers given some errors.

Just like, Meteorite.exe 0.11 (Erdem's last version only supported drag-and-drop), the my compiled meteorite-cli.exe stucked at 98% when repairing to my incompleted/corrupt MKV file.

Most probably, Andrew's improvements don't work on this stuck issues.

But there ise a workaround. Need "damaged.mkv" file re-mux with FFMpeg before Meteorite repaired:

ffmpeg-3.1.5.exe -i "damaged.mkv" -c:v copy -c:a copy -hide_banner -loglevel panic "fixed_ffmpeg.mkv"

And then:

Meteorite-cli.exe "fixed_ffmpeg.mkv"

Now, Meteorite-cli.exe can repair the damaged "fixed_ffmpeg.mkv" without stuck at %98. Just like the MeteoriteGUI 0.11.

Meanwhile, Need version 3.1.5 of FFmpeg. Later versions of FFmpeg 3.1.5 don't work this workaround. They broke or changed something since version 3.1.5. I don't know why.

My first request: Could you please share me your compiled meteorite-cli.exe file? I want to try for confirm.

My second request:

As you know, Meteorite only create with as added the prefix "_Meteorite._OriginalFileName.mkv" output -repaired- file.

Can you adding support a another output filename? Like this:

meteorite-cli.exe damaged.mkv fixed.mkv

My third request:

Meteorite-cli.exe haven't quiet/silent mode. I tried this:

Meteorite-cli.exe "damaged.mkv" >nul

But in this suffix, it's only show to percentages when progressing.

Can you add a silent/quiet mode, too? For example:

meteorite-cli.exe damaged.mkv fixed.mkv /silent

I'm sorry my bad English grammar.
I am also grateful to you for reading this my message.

My warm regards...
