@Mosu
I just replied in the GitHub issue! I guess great minds think alike!

gMKVExtractGUI uses mkvinfo's output in order to determine the relative delay between video and audio tracks. This information cannot be determined from mkvmerge's output. I also use mkvinfo's output to get the CodecPrivate value for each track segment.

To be honest, until recently, I hadn't noticed that you meticulously added the version information in the executables, so I wasn't sure I could robustly detect the version of MKVToolNix that the user uses. However, now that I know that, I can be more flexible about which options to use and when, so if you could add these extra information in mkvmerge's output, that would be perfect!

Thanks for showing interest in a MKVToolNix's "byproduct"!
