The latest version of MKVExtractGUI-2 is 2.2 on Mac Informer. It is a perfect match for the General category. The app is developed by MKVExtractGUI-2.Wineskin. GUIs and batch operations. GMKVExtractGUI: a GUI for mkvextract supporting its full range of features.Runs on Windows and Linux. MKVcleaver: MKVcleaver is a tool for batch extraction of data from MKV files.It is similar to mkvextractGUI in functionality, but allows loading of many files.
MKVExtractGUI-2 is a Matroska (mkv) track extraction GUI tool for work with mkvtoolnix. Requires mkvtoolnix. Demux mkv streams, split video, audio and subtitle to separate files, from an MKV file. MKVtoolnix is a set of tools to create, alter, and inspect Matroska files under OS X, Linux and other Unices, and Windows. They do for Matroska what the OGMtools do for the OGM format and then some. Since May 1st 2003, the Matroska libraries themselves and my Matroska tools are officially released as a first public beta version.
If you have found yourself here looking for MKVtools to convert videos to either MP4 or AVI videos, then you should download either M4tools or AVItools, not MKVtools. If you are a user of the original version of MKVtools and are looking for updates, see here.
Trialware
MKVtools is technically trialware, though in reality, the unregistered version has nearly complete functionality with two minor exceptions:
- A “nag” window will appear every time you load a new file.
- You may only open 1 file at a time, so you can't take advantage of the queue and batch capabilities of MKVtools.
The above limitations will disappear if you register the software ($5.99 - the price of a Big Mac dinner around here). Hopefully you will consider the usefulness of this software to be worth the price of a meal at McDonald's :-).
Note, that the output of the registered and unregistered versions of MKVtools will be identical, so you can thoroughly test MKVtools before you decide to support it’s development. Bugs still exist which may or may not get fixed and there are known issues and probably some unknown issues :-). You should probably consider this software as being sold 'as is', so test thoroughly to see if you think you’re getting your moneys worth before registering.
When registering, you have the option of registering for just MKVtools, or you can choose to register for the VIDEOtoolbox suite of applications for less than the cost of registering two applications. This will get you a registration code that unlocks all of the suite apps. If you decide to register, download the software using the link below, and then follow these registration instructions.
Current Version
MKVtools is Intel-only (64-bit) and requires Mac OS X 10.9.x or later. It has been tested on a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro with no known issues. If you are updating from a pre-3.5.x version, the preferences have been updated and as a result you will need to re-enter your presets, registration code and other preferences. Remember you can find your registration code in the preference panel of the current version. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Beta Software
If MKVtools doesn't quite do what you want it to, you can see if there is a beta version of the software found here. Please help bring the beta software into general release by sending feedback to: [email protected]

MKVtools is the part of the VIDEOtoolbox Suite of Applications used for the creation and editing of MKV videos. For users of the original MVtools (i.e., MKVtools 2), the naming convention could be a bit confusing. This is a new and improved version of the application which will focus on what the original version was not very good at - the creation and editing of MKV files. It will not, however, create MP4 or AVI files. If you are looking to convert videos to either MP4 or AVI videos, then you should try either M4tools or AVItools. As the name might imply, MKVtools is a graphical interface for a variety of tools useful for processing video files.
If you are a user of the original version of MKVtools and are looking for updates, see here.
Features:
- Convert from a variety of video file formats like MKV, MP4, OGM and AVI into MKV videos..
- Can convert most videos without having to re-encode the video track and/or the audio track, so processing takes minutes instead of hours and no quality is lost.
- Simplified, intuitive user interface that takes the guess work out of processing MKV videos.
- Ability to convert various surround sound audio to 5.1 AC3 or 5.1 AAC.
- Intuitively select desired video, audio and/or subtitle tracks to process, with the ability to verify the selections using video preview.
- Define presets for one step automated encoding and track selections settings.
- Burn (i.e., hard code) subtitle tracks into the video, or mux (soft subtitles) from internal tracks or from external subtitle files commonly found on the internet.
- Split MKV videos into segments of a specified file size or by start/end time.
- Turn off an MKV video's header removal compression to allow more compatibility with playback and editing.
- Join MKV videos.
- Extract the selected tracks from MKV videos as individual video and/or audio files.
- Add jobs to a queue either individually or in batches via drag and drop so you can process multiple files overnight (registered copies only).
- Apply one setting to a group of files for easy batch creations (registered copies only).
- Enter a 'Watch Mode' for which MKVtools will process all videos placed in a defined folder (registered copies only).
