MKV tag editing TargetType value question

Help
1

Not sure if this is a bug but having a strange issue!

mkvtoolnix 93.0

When saving MKV tags with the help of an XML file, there is a branch in the XML file with TargetType value of ‘50’. Saving the tags seems completely ok. When I try to load these MKV tags the Targets/TargetType value ‘50’ branch is empty.

https://www.3delite.hu/MKV/Set.xml
https://www.3delite.hu/MKV/Get.xml

The saving cmd line:

‘E:\Documents and Settings_3delite\My Documents\Delphi - C Projects\MKV Tag Editor\Win64\Debug\mkvtoolnix\mkvpropedit.exe --ui-language en -t all:“H:\Applications\Universal File Format Editor\Dexter - Trailer SD - New.mkv.xml” “H:\Applications\Universal File Format Editor\Dexter - Trailer SD - New.mkv” -r “C:\Users\EDECSA~1\AppData\Local\Temp\MKVTagLibraryInfo1982898061.out.txt”’

Could you please help with this?

Thank you very much!

Welcome!

50 is the default value for that element and is therefore not written to the file. Please see this FAQ entry. While it may not seem to address your issue from its title, it does talk about exactly this type of effect.

You can also read up on Matroska & default values for elements elsewhere; there are enough similar posts about it here & elsewhere.

Thank you very much for clearing it up! Seems reasonable. And thank you for the great tool!
