This is an issue because of a change in MKVToolNix's v9.0.0 default behavior for mkvinfo. It's fixed in new version (v1.7.0)

I couldn't disagree more with this. In fact I get really frustrated when applications use this design, since most of the time I don't sit in front of the application's status bar, waiting for it to get to 100%, but I do other stuff, expecting a signal from the app that the process is finished.
However, since it wasn't difficult to implement, I added an option for changing the default behavior in the new version (v1.7.0), so I am waiting for feedback!


Enjoy people!
