mkvtoolnix: updated to 75.0.0
Version 75.0.0 "Goliath" 2023-03-26
New features and enhancements
* mkvmerge: MP4 reader: mkvmerge will now read Timed Text (FourCC `tx3g`)
subtitle tracks & convert them on the fly to Matroska's simple text subtitle
format (`S_TEXT/UTF8`; text only, no styles).
Bug fixes
* all: switched back to using `boost::filesystem` functions for creating
directories instead of the ones introduced to work around bugs in
`std::filesystem`. The latter didn't work correctly with UNC paths after the
switch to `boost::filesystem::path` in v74.
* mkvmerge: VobSub reader: mkvmerge will now probe the `.idx` file during
VobSub identification even if the `.sub` file is passed as the
source. Avoids mis-detection of the `.sub` as MPEG program streams.
* MKVToolNix GUI: the GUI could abort with an exception on startup while
looking for the `mkvmerge` or `mediainfo` executables due to inaccessible
folders.
* MKVToolNix GUI: preferences: when opening the preferences the first time the
UI might pre-select the first entry in the list of interface languages if
the operating system's language is not available for MKVToolNix. This might
also happen on Linux if e.g. `en_GB` is set, even though `en_US` is
available. Now English (`en_US`) will be selected instead.
* MKVToolNix GUI: multiplexer: when adding files the GUI has special handling
for chapter/tags/segment info files. This is done by comparing their content
to certain patterns. This recognition could wrongfully be triggered if any
such file was embedded in another file verbatim, e.g. with a chapter XML
file attachment in a Matroska file. When trying to add that Matroska file,
the GUI would treat it as a chapter file instead of a regular one. This
content-based detection was fixed.
Other changes
* mkvpropedit, GUI's header editor: removed support for the deprecated
"minimum cache" & "maximum cache" track header elements.
