About MKV Format
MKV (Matroska Video) is an open-source container format that can hold multiple video, audio, and subtitle tracks in a single file. While it offers excellent flexibility and quality, MKV has limited support on mobile devices and many consumer electronics.
Converting MKV to MP4 transforms the container while preserving the original video quality. This process makes your videos compatible with virtually all devices, streaming platforms, and media players without sacrificing the audio and video quality.

Container Conversion Process
MKV to MP4 conversion primarily involves changing the container format while preserving the original video and audio streams. In many cases, the video doesn't need to be re-encoded, making the process faster and maintaining perfect quality.
However, some MKV files may contain codecs not supported by MP4 containers. In these cases, our converter will re-encode the video using compatible codecs like H.264, ensuring the final MP4 file plays everywhere while maintaining the highest possible quality.
The conversion also handles multiple audio tracks and subtitles commonly found in MKV files, selecting the primary streams for the MP4 output. This ensures compatibility while preserving the essential content from your original file.
