MKV [Demuxing , Encoding and Muxing]

Matroska(MKV) is getting popular by the day and with most HD Content being distributed in the MKV Container.

Tools Required :
1. MKVToolNix  - http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/downloads.html
2. H.264 Info - http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...kage_id=225029
3. MeGUI - http://sourceforge.net/projects/megui


Part 1 : Demuxing an MKV into elementary streams

1. Start MKVMergeGUI from the MKVToolNix Installation Folder

2. Drag and Drop your MKV Video file to the “Input Files” container .

3. Notice the Streams you want to extract .


4. Now open a Command Prompt from
Start->Program Files->accessories->Command Prompt

5. Change to the directory where you have MKVToolNix installed

6. Now to demux the file you’ll use a program called mkvextract .

7. On the command prompt , type this code:

mkvextract tracks <Full MKV Path> 1:<Full path where you want to store your Extracted Video> 2:<Full path where you want to store your Extracted Audio>

Note: The most simple way to enter path of a file in CMD is to just drag and drop it into the Prompt and it’s path will automatically be added .





8. This will extract the Video and Audio streams separately in the locations C:\Video.264 c:\Audio.aac

Part 2: Encoding the Video and Audio

1. Open up H264Info




2. Load the file using the input button and then change the Profile Level of the file to 4.1 , this will make sure that the H.264 Video plays well on most HD Players and the Xbox 360 as well .

3. Save the output as video-4.1.264

4. Now if you want to encode the audio then encode it to whatever format you like using any encoder like dBPoweramp or whichever encoder you like . we’ll leave the audio encoding part here as AAC works fine .

Part 3: Muxing into an MPEG-4 File

1. Now , to combine these streams into s single MP4 file we’ll have to Multiplex it.

2. Fire up MeGUI

3. Go to Tools->MP4 Muxer


4. Now set the Video Input , the Frame Rate , the Audio Input and Finally select the Output Destination .

5. The resultant file is a fully standards compliant mp4 file and will play in any player that supports H.264 and AAC .
