MKVToolNix CommentaryAn alternative? - Version: 2.0, 3/2/2008 10:01PM PST

I have used this to resurrect the sound from about 20 mkv files and it appears to have worked flawlessly. It will also allow you to extract tracks in order to build whatever composite container you like to build/use. Here's a section from the "readme."
"What is MoKgVm2DVD? MoKgVm2DVD is an application that provides the tools needed to prepare .ogm and .mkv files for use in DivX enabled DVD players. Note, this application will not allow you to play these files in non-DivX certified DVD players. When you open either of these two types of video “container” files in MokgVm2DVD, you will be presented with a list of video, audio and subtitle tracks contained in the file. Sometimes there will be enough information for you to determine what each track represents. If not, you can select a video and an audio track (and optionally a subtitle track) to preview the tracks in an mplayer window. Once you’ve determined which tracks you are interested in, you can either convert the tracks into an .avi file, or you can extract the tracks individually to manipulate in your favorite video application. Go to http://www.emmgun.com/ for more detailed information, instructions and troubleshooting."
It's not free but is worth the small amount asked just to be able to do batch processing though.

MKVToolNix CommentaryCan't get it working - Version: 2.0, 3/13/2007 12:25AM PST

MkvMerge Application crashes upon launch. 'The application mmg has unexpectedly quit'

Upon trying the example commands in the Readme file using Terminal:
mkvmerge can't open library: /usr/lib/libbz2.1.0.dylib

One of the requirements of this packege is 'Command line fu!' but I have no idea what that is and a Google search brings up gibberish.

Unfortunately .mkv is a useless format for 99% of the population because the developers don't provide usable tools. I have three .mkv files here that don't play reliably with VLC (the video is very choppy). I was able to extract one of them into a usable format using VisualHub but none of the others are even recognised by ffmpeg. I tried using MPlayer but am unable to change the subtitles or language.
