makemkv parses supergirl deleted scenes incorrectly

I've noticed this on a bunch of CW comic book show blurays, but it seems that makemkv doesn't always parse the deleted scenes correctly.

i.e. if I string the playlist, I see

$ strings 00201.mpls
MPLS0200
`01208M2TS
1eng
`01226M2TS
1eng
`01268M2TS
1eng
`01269M2TS
1eng

but makemkv only shows

Title information
Name: Supergirl Season 5 Disc 3 (English)
Source file name: 00201.mpls
Duration: 0:03:14
Chapters count: 2
Size: 296.1 MB
Segment count: 2

but mkvtoolnix-gui does the correct thing with the same playlist, so that's what I ended up using.

so I used hdcookbook's playlist dumper and it was able to parse the file fine, this seems to be an issue with makemkv.

attaching the hdcookbook dump and the original file

if you play 01268.m2ts and 01269.m2ts in a video player, what do these videos actually show?

maybe they're like 0 frames and MakeMKV ignores them, but that is just a guess.

they play fine. they are also playable with the episodic deleted scene playlist. and if I play the playlist directly in players that support it, I see all the deleted scenes
