About:
MKVtools is a macOS graphical user interface for the powerful MKVToolNix command-line utilities. It simplifies the process of creating, splitting, merging, and editing Matroska (MKV) video files without needing to use the terminal. The application provides an intuitive interface for managing tracks, adjusting settings, and remuxing video files efficiently.
Key Features:
  • GUI for MKVToolNix (mkvmerge, mkvpropedit, mkvextract)
  • Batch processing capabilities for multiple files
  • Track management (add, remove, enable/disable audio and subtitle tracks)
  • Video and audio track remuxing without re-encoding
  • Built-in chapter editor
Use Cases:
  • Merging multiple video segments or files into a single MKV container
  • Extracting specific audio or subtitle tracks from a video file
  • Removing unwanted tracks or languages from a downloaded MKV file
  • Fixing or editing metadata and chapters in existing MKV files
Alternatives:
  • MKVToolNix (CLI) – The underlying command-line tools that MKVtools provides a GUI for; more powerful for scripting but less user-friendly.
  • Subler – Excellent macOS tool, but primarily focused on MP4/M4V containers rather than MKV.
