MKV - the history and characteristics of the format
MKV files are multimedia containers of an open large project called Matroska video. MKV format was developed by domestic programmers to compete with the most common AVI video format. The name "Matryoshka" was given to the format because, like the Russian traditional toy, it has a similar structure with attachments. In fact, MKV is a container, that is, a package in which analog information is transferred, converted into digital format using codecs. That is, the MKV container, as an archiver, contains tracks of video, audio (of which there may be several), service information and subtitles.
