Invalid Chapters_Pos_Begin

[zoriya]

With some files, Chapters_Pos_Begin point to an extra menu track that is not a chapter.

Here is the result of mediainfo --Output=JSON video/spirited_away\(1\).mp4 | jq '.media.track.[] | select(."@type" == "Menu")' for reference

{
  "@type": "Menu",

  }
}

Here is an example code and what it outputs:

chapters_begin := mi.Parameter(mediainfo.StreamMenu, 0, "Chapters_Pos_Begin")
chapters_end := mi.Parameter(mediainfo.StreamMenu, 0, "Chapters_Pos_End")
printf("Chapters %d %d\n", chapters_begin, chapters_end)
for i := chapters_begin; i < chatpers_end; i++ {
	printf("Chapter %d: %s\n", i, mi.GetI(mediainfo.StreamMenu, 0, i, mediainfo.InfoName))
}

There is the right number of chapters, but the start/end is offset by 3. Is there something I did wrong on my end?

Please share a file with "offset by 3", easier for debugging. here or link to be sent at [email protected] if it can not be publicly shared.
