How to Convert MOV to MKV With Free MKV Converter

MKV file is a Matroska file for Videos with audios and subtitles, and if you noticed there are two sentences outstanding at the MKV official homepage: “It is NOT a video or audio compression format (video codec); It is an envelope for which there can be many audio, video and subtitles streams, allowing the user to store a complete movie or CD in a single file.” In simple words through my understanding, it’s saying the format significantly features combination-only and envelope without file internal structure rebuilding and data recompressing. In other words, it’s a pure multimedia container format just as I mentioned above.
