What is AVI to MKV?

Convert AVI videos to MKV format instantly in your browser. No upload required, completely free.

How It Works

Upload your AVI file, click Convert, and download the MKV output. All processing happens locally using FFmpeg WebAssembly.

How to Use

  1. 1

    Upload your AVI file

    Drop a .avi file onto the upload zone.

  2. 2

    Convert

    Click "Convert to MKV". FFmpeg remuxes the AVI content into the more modern MKV container.

  3. 3

    Download

    Save the MKV for use in media players that support the Matroska format.

Who Uses This Tool

🎞️

Add Subtitle Tracks

MKV supports multiple subtitle tracks in one file — convert AVI and add external subtitles in the MKV container.

🗂️

Multiple Audio Tracks

Store multiple language audio tracks in a single MKV file — not possible with the AVI container.

💾

Home Media Server

Plex and Jellyfin prefer MKV — convert your AVI library for a better home media server experience.

📺

VLC & Kodi Playback

MKV is the preferred format for VLC, Kodi, and HTPC setups that benefit from its chapter and metadata support.

🗄️

Video Archiving

MKV is an open format with no patent restrictions — ideal for long-term lossless video archiving.

✂️

Chapter Markers

Add chapter points to your video — MKV supports chapters natively while AVI does not.
