Issues with runtime of muxed file.

[krosswindz]

I encoded a video using x264 and then muxed the RAWAVC file using mkvmergeGUI. The issue I am facing is that the runtime of the muxed file is incorrect. When muxing I set the fps correctly to 24fps. My muxed file shows that the runtime is 2h 58mn when it is actually 2h 9mn. I am wondering what could be the cause of the problem. I havent faced this issue earlier with other encodes. I am using mkvmerge v4.3.0. Any help in resolving this issue is appreciated.

when it is actually 2h 9mn.

How did you obtain this info?

[krosswindz]

That I obtained from number of frames/fps. MeGUI log doesnt show any errors and the correct number of frames have been encoded. If I play the muxed file using MPC-HC it stops around the runtime that I calculated but the actual runtime shown in the seek bar is 2h 58mn.

Ah, you're using a gui. Sorry, can't help you with these. You might try posting on the appropriate forum.

^ Sorry for the confusion, I muxed the file manually using mkvmerge by adding the files. I only used MeGUI for encoding the file as RAWAVC and I meant there were no errors during the encoding stage.

Yes, but the gui created the file and something probably got screwed up there.

^ Thanks, I have reported the issue in the MeGUI troubleshooting thread.

Issue is resolved now, the problem was with the subtitle stream. It would be nice if mkvmerge gave a warning if one of the stream (except video) was really off when compared to the video stream.
