OK, this is a bit complicated.

The one "job output" tab that's always visible does indeed collect the logs of all jobs. The output isn't just saved from the "output" text field to a file as there are three text fields: "output", "warnings", "errors". What's saved is the internal representation of the output as it is produced by mkvmerge — meaning warnings & error messages are interleaved with regular output, preserving the order in which the messages arrive.

That being said, clearing the output on the "job output" tab should also clear its internal representation, which it doesn't seem to do — hence you seeing the output of all jobs in the saved file. I'll look into that.

As yet another workaround you can go to the "job queue" tool & right-click on the job whose output you want to save. Select "View output" from the context menu. This will open a separate tab in the "job output" tool, and from there you can save it.
