Hello, I'm wondering why some MKV files I have get the "truncated" value, when they are perfectly playable ones?

Thanks.

    Being playable does not mean that the file is well formed, the file has maybe 1 missing byte and it is a part about an index.
    Without any file, difficult to say more.

    I see, well I sent you a message with a link for a truncated file.

    Regards.

    Your file contains 24 extra chars at the end of the file:
    Hex: 0A 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 0A 0A 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 0A
    ASCII: .0000000000..0000000000.
    They are managed as new Matroska elements (and they are not, they are just sime junk) so the element size is seen as bigger than the file size, so the "IsTruncated" message.

    I see, I didn't encoded the file myself, but I bet it was a glitch introduced by the used program.

    Thanks for the clarification about the matter.

    Regards.
