    I followed the directions in an old thread to help me split an MKV apart so I could edit its subtitle file and then merge it all back together using mkvmerge. When I did, I got a message saying the program couldn't dertermine the frames-per-second and that I'd need to provide it.

    I tried a few things. 24 seems right, but ends up with a lag in the video behind the audio by the end of the file.

    If I could find out the FPS of the original file, I could just use that, I'm sure. I used the mkvinfo GUI that came with MKVtoolnix, but I couldn't read the results (I'm an amateur, if you can't tell). I thought I found a FPS value, but when I tried it, it was at least twice too fast.

    After that, I got a figure just from Media Player Classic's Properties functions. This is almost perfect, but there's a tiny slowdown I very nearly didn't notice until I compared it with the original file.

    Open the original file with MediaInfo to check the frame rate.

    And of course, the answer is that simple. Apologies for my ignorance.

    That worked perfectly. Thank you very much.
