Is there a way to tell what version of handbrake was used to do the transcoding?

I have a samsung TV (2017) version - and Used an older copy of handbrake to do the encoding... and the videos are fine...
Thinking the newer verision of handbrake would be better / fix bugs i upgraded a few times but now the videos take about 40 -50 seconds to start
instead of the 2 seconds in older version. I was hoping it was possible to somehow see what movies were encoded with what version so I can go back to that version instead of 1.2.2.

MediaInfo should be able to provide that information.

Thank you! :)
If I see any pattern in the movies that fail to load promptly ill def let the community know.
Still not sure exactly what is causing the issue.

With the HandBrake encode log for both files, we may be able to tell. Failing that, the encode log for one of the new "slow" files and the MediaInfo report for the old "fast" files.
