Apologies, I didn't read through your setup set by step, my original assumption
was that there was something "deep" happening with .mkv files.

First question - You are excluding your home drive and not adding any other
folders for indexing?

Then giving an "index contents=false" command, which I think doesn't exist but
will be ignored together with am "only basic indexing=false", which switched
from filename/metadata indexing to full text.

I'm guessing you want to avoid automatic indexing (of anything, as you've not
given any folders to index) and rely on manual commands to index files. That's
an unusual setup.

Second question - Is "/home/sd/" your home directory (not an SD disk or other
external media?). If it is external media, can you say what filesystem - in
fact it's probably a good idea to let us know what filesystems you are using
anyway (ext4, btrfs, etc, etc)

Third question - Does that happen just with .mkv files? or does the same happen
if you copy and index, say, a .pdf?

There are two "watch points":

On some systems if you exclude $HOME without including any other folders, you
get it included by default (so you see it both excluded and included).

Second point is if you have not included a folder for indexing and then
manually index one of the files in it. Baloo will "think" that the file no
longer needs to be indexed and remove the entry. That alone *should* not leave
you with a different set of results but maybe we've got more than one strange
thing happening here...
