I created an mkv from a blu-ray using MakeMKV. MediaInfo shows the chapters were preserved but when I next try to split the file by chapters using MKVTooknix GUI it gives me an error. All I am doing is loading the file and selecting split mode "Before chapters". The error reads "Invalid chapter number '' for '--split' in '--split chapters:': Not a valid number or not positive." (MKVToolnix GUI automatically sets the chapter number to "unlimited" in this split mode).

What am I missing?

This is a music video and I want to be a able to play each song separately and mix and match with other music videos, change play order etc.
