MKV vs MP4 -Which Video Format is Better?

Please! Turn off the 'music' I can hardly understand you!

This was helpful what I heard was MKV has better quality and audio but may not be compatible with everything and MP4 is universally compatible and easy for streaming

Thanks for video

mkv for me is better even edit video longplays where to cut withoud reencoded and don't have problems with b-frames or similar, just cut and join.

simple and straight forwad, love it

Exactly what I needed to know. Thank you!

mp4 does support multiple audio tracks

The ability to turn on or off subtitles way outweighs the additional space for me.

Nice Mic , do you also inseminate horses with it?

not even 3 mins and now I know everything I needed to know about this. thank you so freaking much :DD

Thank you for this!

Sad, my Sansui f51 video player is being selective when it comes to mkv files. It's a hit and miss when I download movies.

what about recording the file in mkv then render it to mp4? would be better than recording in mp4? or no difference?

Mkv is great

Good information. I have all of my movie files converted to MKV and use VLC to play all audio and video files. It's easy to turn on (or off) subtitles or to change the audio streams. If I need to add a subtitle to a file or convert a video file to MKV, I use the MKV ToolNix programme.

Thank you for this. My OBS format is Mkv, but I remux them on OBS so I can edit the videos on Premier Pro because they don’t accept Mkv as a compatible format yet.

MKV stands for Matroska Video. This is why you shouldn’t rely on Wikipedia.
