Bug Description

Binary package hint: mkvtoolnix

mkvmerge fails to recognize a valid srt subtitle. It returns me the following error:

File identification failed for '/media/disk/aMule/Incoming/Start Trek TNG S02/Star Trek The Next Generation [2x14] - The Icarus Factor.srt'. Return code: 2

Error: File /media/disk/aMule/Incoming/Start Trek TNG S02/Star Trek The Next Generation
[2x14] - The Icarus Factor.srt has unknown type. Please have a look at the supported
file types ('mkvmerge --list-types') and contact the author Moritz Bunkus <email address hidden>
if your file type is supported but not recognized properly.

The same version of mkvtoolnix in 8.04 was working fine so I assume that something in the 8.10 packaging brove mkvmerge. The version of mkvtoolnix is 2.0.2-1.1
