The applications will no longer try to write those elements, even if they’re found in the file to be modified. mkvpropedit, MKVToolNix GUI’s chapter & header editors: updated the list of deprecated Matroska elements.

Only affects the VobSub & USF subtitle extraction. mkvextract: IETF BCP 47/RFC 5646 language tags: mkvextract will now use & prefer IETF BCP 47 track language elements if they’re present.

mkvmerge: fixed reversed attachment selection: -attachments !4 would not copy any attachment instead of all attachments but the one with ID 4.mkvmerge: Matroska reader: fixed reading files with EBML Void elements before the Matroska Segment element.The heuristic has simply been removed, fixing #3392. Unfortunately this affected valid subtitle files with intentional huge gaps in timestamps, e.g. mkvmerge: HDMV PGS subtitles: reverted the change that implemented a heuristic for detecting bogus timestamps & attempting to fix them.Instead the parser will remember the last known-good position & restart from there after more data is available. mkvmerge: AV1 parser: fixed the parser completely aborting when parsing the OBU size field fails due to there not being enough data to parse.MKVToolNix GUI: info tool: added information about the file (directory, size, modification timestamp) at the top of each tab.MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when dragging & dropping directories to the “attachments” tab, the files contained in those directories will be attached.Lines prefixed with #GUI# are suitable for machine parsing, won’t be translated and are guaranteed not to change in format. If GUI mode is active, a specially formatted line #GUI#splitting_before_timestamp is output as well. mkvmerge: when splitting is active the program will output the timestamps actually used for making the decision when to split.mkvmerge: AV1 parser: the variable-width OBU size field will be re-written with minimal length if it’s encoded longer than necessary.Here are the NEWS since the previous release: New features and enhancements The other Linux binaries are stil being built and will be available over the course of the next couple of hours.

The Windows and macOS binaries as well as the Linux AppImage are available already. You can download the source code or one of the binaries. It fixes quite a lot of bugs, several one of them in the component driving the in-place file modification in mkvpropedit & the GUI’s chapter & header editors.
