Posted August 14, 2014 i learned this awesome trick from a youtube video lets say you have an MKV file and a stupid apple device that only likes streaming content to be mp4 or what ever just open VLC click media > convert/save > click add > add the video you want > convert/save now click on the wrench icon its next to the red X icon select MP4 or what ever on video tab click the keep original video track and on the audio tab click keep original audio track and now click save and start it will only take some seconds if the video turned out to have no sound go back to the audio tab and untick and change the audio codec to something like ACC or mp3 this isnt only for mkv to mp4 there are MANY other containers to choose from If your grave doesn't say "rest in peace" on it You are automatically drafted into the skeleton war.

Posted August 14, 2014 Author wouldn't this be dependant on how fast your pc was? on how fast your hard disk/ ssd is i have a slow 1TB hard drive it took me like a minute it pretty much just changed the container like unzipping then zipping the file again If your grave doesn't say "rest in peace" on it You are automatically drafted into the skeleton war.

Posted August 14, 2014 Interesting. Would do it if Plex wasn't good enough to encode subtitles. Thanks for the tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 15, 2014 I've already try this but it don't uncrypt the subtitle on the mp4 render. Or I just miss a step and fail everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted August 16, 2014 I've used MKVtoolnix (with MKVextractGUI addon) to select files within the MKV container to extract. And the MKVmerge app to create a MKV.
