And after C-g, do you type "C-x C-f RET" and click "Regexp" on the
menu bar?  Or do you do something else?

Sorry, I cannot view MKV files here, so can you either upload a more
widespread format or describe in more details what is going on?

I also wonder whether this is GTK-specific.  Could you try reproducing
this in "emacs -Q -nw"?  If your Emacs is built without GPM support,
you should try F10 instead of a mouse click.

Thanks.
