MKVToolNix overview
MKVtoolnix is a set of tools to create, alter, and inspect Matroska files under OS X, Linux and other Unices, and Windows. They do for Matroska what the OGMtools do for the OGM format and then some.
Since May 1st 2003, the Matroska libraries themselves and my Matroska tools are officially released as a first public beta version. Although all of them are still under heavy development, I urge you to download the software, test it and report any errors you encounter to me. I'm always grateful for good bug reports because I miss so many mistakes and you guys normally find them. Your feedback is important to me :)
Note: While the software is classified as free, it is actually donationware. Please consider making a donation to help support development.

Version: 89.0
Can't open - even using the "hold down Control while click on app" technique under OSC 15.1.1

Version: 86.0
5-star review to counteract the ignorance from users who don't know how to use a search engine. Also, it's concerning that HandBrake and other converter tools are trending as alternatives, this is not a media converter.

Version: 57.0.0
Seems many people didn't know. If you mac won't open the file, just hold down 'control' while clicking the app, then choose 'open'. it will then always open.
