MKVToolNix
MKVToolNix is a comprehensive set of tools for creating, editing, and inspecting Matroska (MKV) video files. It provides both command-line utilities and a user-friendly GUI for tasks like merging multiple video, audio, and subtitle tracks into a single MKV file, splitting large files into smaller segments, and extracting specific tracks from existing files. The application is widely used by video enthusiasts, content creators, and media professionals who need to manipulate MKV containers without re-encoding the underlying video streams, preserving quality while performing operations like adding subtitles, changing track properties, or combining multi-part movies. It supports a vast range of input formats and codecs, making it an essential tool for video remuxing and media library management workflows.

1 suggestionBased on the Homebrew data, MKVToolNix is actively maintained with version 97.0 being the latest (newer than the 88.0 mentioned). While the search results don't explicitly confirm Apple Silicon support, the application continues to receive regular updates through 2024-2025, suggesting ongoing development. You can download the latest version directly from the official website at mkvtoolnix.download. Note that the Homebrew version is marked as deprecated due to Gatekeeper issues, so downloading directly from the official site is recommended. If the current version runs through Rosetta translation, check the official website periodically as the active development suggests native Apple Silicon support may be added in future releases.
