It turns DVDs and Blu-rays into a modern and versatile format called MKV. This format keeps all the good stuff from the original discs – like different audio tracks, subtitles in different languages, and even those special features and bonus content. MakeMKV can also take the encrypted videos from the disc and play them directly without converting them to another format. It essentially allows you to enjoy your movies and shows in MKV format using your favorite media player or operating system. Plus, with the right resources, you can even stream MKV files right from your computer or remote server (seedbox). Naturally, the next question is, “What is the MKV format, and why is it so special?” We answer the question below. What are MKV Files?An MKV file is a file saved in a Matroska multimedia container format. Think of an MKV file as a versatile container for your videos. It’s like a treasure chest that can hold different kinds of audio, video, and subtitle files all in one place. Imagine having a video file that not only includes the actual movie or show but also the subtitles in various languages and even different types of audio, all bundled up together. Now, there is a misconception about MKV files that needs clearing up. MKV format does not compress videos or audio to make them smaller. Instead, it is like an organizer that can handle various media types, whether a fancy video codec or a cool audio format. For example, an MKV file might pack in a stunning H.264 video along with crystal-clear MP3 or AAC audio. The MKV format was released in 2002 when it was born as an open-source format. It is more of a sibling to familiar formats like AVI, ASF, and . MOV. Just like a container for your lunch can hold a sandwich, an apple, and a cookie, an MKV container can hold video, audio, images, and even subtitles. Now that we have that out of the way and you understand what MKV files are, let’s discuss why MakeMKV is the best software for converting DVD and Blu-ray discs to MKV files.
