Convert MKV to AAC

Converting one file format to another may be necessary for various reasons. So, for example, you may want to convert MKV to AAC if your computer, phone or other device does not support MKV format. Also, conversion is often required to reduce the file size, since the original format takes up too much space in the device's memory. Perhaps you just need to extract the audio track from the video file, in which case converting the video to audio format is a good option. In any case, with the help of our converter, you can easily complete the required task. Below you can find out some details about the original and new file formats.

MKV is a special AVI-like audio / video container that stores a huge amount of information. The MKV format is an open source project by Matroska designed to create a unified standard for multimedia containers on the PC. MKV is a multimedia container that combines in one file: video, sound, subtitles, pictures, various service information, and most importantly, the possibility of creating a media menu in the MKV container is declared. It supports such formats as: mkv - responsible for video files, mks - responsible for subtitles and mka - sound. The format is open source, which means anyone can use it and make changes. MKV has earned a good reputation due to its resistance to various bugs and errors and the possibility of emergency recovery of files, even if damaged. Matroska Multimedia Container is an open standard free container format, a file format that can contain an unlimited number of video, audio, images or subtitles in a single file. It is intended to be used as a universal storage format for common multimedia content such as movies or TV shows. It is popular for its high quality and relatively small size. The format is not as widespread as MP4 and AVI. Therefore, sometimes the question may arise which MKV player should be used to view these files.

Advanced Audio Coding, also known as AAC, is similar to MP3, although slightly more efficient. This means you can have files that take up less space but still have the same audio quality as MP3s. The best evangelist of this format today is Apple's iTunes, which made AAC so popular that it became almost as widely known as MP3. AAC is capable of achieving more flexible and efficient, and therefore better quality audio coding. As a result of the widespread use of the MP3 format, the AAC standard has not yet acquired the popularity comparable to that of MP3. Nevertheless, AAC is the main format in the popular iTunes Store, iPods, iTunes, iPhone, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii and DAB + / DRM digital radio. Most audiophiles who value the best possible sound quality tend to avoid MP3, AAC, and other digital audio formats because these formats use compression to create smaller files. The trade-off is that the upper and lower limits of the audio range are lost. Most average listeners don't notice loss, but for sound aficionados it can be a barrier.
