Changelog for MKV-Optimizer v3 3.20.037
No scaling and adjustment of the windows if the Windows scaling is over 100% (@Rudi at a loss)

Adapting the columns to the content (@ 18Phoenix)
The first deposited audio track in the audio tracks to be retained is always set as the default track. Works only on language, not on track ID (@badjack)
Columns are sortable
For audio and subtitle tracks, the tracks' names, if any, are displayed. Thus one can e.g. Recognize commentary tracks
The settings of MKV Optimizer v2 will not be applied. But so much is not synonymous to adjust :)
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.110.104
Proposal by @ bugmenot2: MKV-Optimizer adapts itself to the window scaling (HiDPI).
The audio conversion folder is now saved.
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.100.097
The update query regarding MKVToolNix has been adjusted.
UNC paths should be correctly detected when checking for sufficient free space, and the free size properly determined
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.99.056
At MKVToolNix something was changed again from version 21 onwards. This version is only executable with MKVToolNix v21. A corresponding message is output if the appropriate program version is not installed.
ffmpeg updated to version 3.4.2
@CvH had a note about too little memory on the disk:
MKV Optimizer now checks before each convert if enough space is available for the current video. For this purpose, the file size + 5% is required. If less memory is available, the file will be highlighted in red and skipped. The conversion is automatically repeated until there are no more red entries, or the same number of red entries as in the previous run.
Entry in the context menu: "Open file path" added (@CvH)
Master data to add the option "Rename original file to * .bak" under "Save files to another folder" (@CvH)
Status when reading the folders and reading the video information is updated again (@CvH)
Progress bar in the system tray added (@ 18Phoenix)
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.95.015
With version MKVToolNix a lot has been changed in the output of the information and the parameters. This version is only executable with MKVToolNix v20. A corresponding message is output if the appropriate program version is not installed.
Fixed various bugs and optimized parts.
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.90.255
Conversion of audio tracks.
Here is supported on conversion everything the program ffmpeg can. The ffmpeg.exe must be in the same folder as MKV Optimizer.
If other programs are to be supported or profiles need to be added / adjusted, just let me know.
Desired by @ 18Phoenix demolition feature added
Update mode adapted for MKVToolNix. A new version will be displayed with the corresponding version number.
New feature, wish of @ Lotte555, @ shorty1483
If MKV Optimizer is given a folder as a transfer parameter, it automatically searches for existing MKV files and, if enabled in the master data, automatically optimizes them according to the settings in the settings. After completing the work, MKV Optimizer will exit. There are no messages.
Fixed various bugs and optimized parts.
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.70.056
@ 18Phoenix had found a mistake regarding the selection in the master data.
Simple update mode for upcoming MKVToolNix versions
Prepared for converting audio tracks.
(a trial will only be in the thread at first)
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.70.032
@ Chrom88 had found a mistake when more than 10 tracks (video, audio and subtitles) were present.
With MKVToolNix 9.8.0 the parameter was removed to check for existing updates.
Currently only the version is displayed. Maybe later I will do my own exam.
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.65.010
Little bug fix regarding changing tracks with AND.
Tracks are also changed (with mkvpropedit) if no conversion is done.
If the order of the tracks is correct, no conversion will be triggered
Changelog for MKV Optimizer v2 0.65.009
@WingmanNZ had a few wishes that I have incorporated
For subtitles, a "-F" is shown after the language if the subtitle has the status "forced".
The setting by what the language "AND" should be replaced, now works with subtitles.
The metadata to be removed can be chosen by you.
The order of the tracks can be reset. If the audio track and then the video track come first in a MKV file, they will be rearranged during conversion. First, there is always the video track. Then the audio track and finally the subtitles.
