Reliabaility as a benchmark - questions #122

Hello,

I'm processing several thousand videos. Conversion to Matroska container and tagging. I ose mkvalidator, mkclean, and mkvtoolnix extensively. Recently, I had occasion to question my tagging software's quality. When I run mkvalidator, after running the tagger, I typically get the response listed below. Two questions:

  1. Are the programs I'm using reliable and accurate benchmarks for quality of the container?
  2. Is the typical result listed, indicative of a serious issue that needs addressing?

C:\Users\jimly\Downloads__video mkv\more tagging\autotag-3.5.0_win-x64>mkvalidator "Pinocchio (1940).mkv" WRN103: Unnecessary secondary SeekHead was found at 1055433913 WRN861: The SegmentInfo is not referenced in the main SeekHead WRN861: The TrackInfo is not referenced in the main SeekHead WRN861: The Cues is not referenced in the main SeekHead WRN861: The Chapters is not referenced in the main SeekHead WRN0C0: First Block for video track #1 in Cluster at 346415746 is not a keyframe WRN0C0: First Block for video track #1 in Cluster at 382937727 is not a keyframe WRN0C0: First Block for video track #1 in Cluster at 765300365 is not a keyframe mkvalidator 0.5.2: the file appears to be valid........... file "Pinocchio (1940).mkv" created with Lavf57.83.100 / Lavf57.83.100

Inconsistent results in repeated testing.
