Well, what d'ya know? This worked! Mostly.
I ran my copy of Adjustment Bureau through mkvmerge with your suggestion
and then tested it. It cured the problem of pauses resuming at a
different location in the movie. That's terrific! However, the "Time
Remaining" barometer still showed incorrect time remaining. For me,
that's relatively minor. Thanks for the tip!
I wonder if there's a way to combine the two steps of using makemkv
followed by mkvmerge?
