EDIT Error arrises when vobsub subtitles are included in the mkv container. At this point I do not know if this is a bug or just not supported.

I was getting this problem with v0.9.0 so I cloned master (reports 0.10.0) and still the same issue. Source is from a DVD rip to lossless h264 video with an ac3 audio track and vobsub from DVD. Ffmpeg was used to encode the video with the following

ffmpeg -i "input.mkv" -c:a copy -c:s copy -c:v libx264 -vf "fieldmatch, fps=24000/1001, zscale=w=640:h=480:f=lanczos" -tune animation -preset veryslow -qp 0 -pix_fmt yuv420p -color_range tv -colorspace smpte170m -color_trc smpte170m -color_primaries smpte170m -map 0 -map_metadata -1 -max_interleave_delta 0 -y "output.mkv"

-max_interleave_delta 0 is used because ffmpeg does not properly handle timecodes or something, this fixes that.

Running the following results in the error above on 2 different machines (an intel xeon w-1290t and a amd threadripper 3945wx)

mkclean --remux --optimize output.mkv

Here is the example video, but it is not the only one giving me this exact same issue. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PwW8hCpensf8Zop-N98oyq4DKRXDw1tb/view?usp=sharing

I have been running into this exact error with both .9 and .10 after building from source w/ no errors on Ubuntu. Does not occur with pre-built .9 Win64 binary.

vobsub subs are not the (only) cause, I get this on HEVC+PGS MKVs encoded with handbrake. It occurs when the --optimize switch is used, if using only --remux it succeeds (it also works with only --keep-cues).

I need to do more testing unrelated to this problem but which I need mkclean for, so I will try to provide a more comprehensive matrix of what does and doesn't trigger it.

Using an MKV containing HEVC, DTS-HD MA, and PGS subs that I ripped and encoded some time ago with Handbrake 1.0.7 w/x265 2.4, I tried the following with .10 on Ubuntu 22.04:

--keep-cues - pass --remux - pass --live - pass --unsafe - pass --optimize - fail --optimize_nv - fail --no-optimize - fail

All three failures produced identical output:

This is not the same exact error reported here, however I can reproduce that error with an MKV containing AVC, DTS-HD MA, and PGS subs (which I did not rip/encode):

Behavior with other mkclean options is the same as the HEVC file above.
