Thanks. Changing the date didn't help. The small dialog box still pops up.
Message: Application failed to initialize
NO_ANSWER_FROM_MAKEMKVCON
Then click OK, and the dialog box disappears.
I use Manjaro XFCE and MakeMKV 1.18.4-1
Edit: Okay. It seems to have something to do with ffmpeg 2:9.0-5. What can I do about it?

They bumped
pkgrel=2 on AUR already, because they added a
patch !
paru (or
yay ) will upgrade to
1.18.4-2 without issues.

Thanks to everyone.
The last tip helped. Before that, I'd also tried the tip from Reddit, and that worked, too. But the last tip also fixed the problem where an update kept popping up.
