MKV container format is no doubt a nice choice for both Windows and Mac users to do Blu-ray conversion with multiple audio tracks and subtitles streams included, as well as the original video quality preserved. Additionally, the subtitles tracks and audio tracks packaged in the MKV container are not burnt into the video, so users are free to select wanted audio/subs track to display during playback, as well as switch on/off subtitles during viewing (See more about BD/DVD Backup: why choose MKV?). The guide below intends to provide Mac users with a solution about how to keep multiple audios and subtitles when processing BD to MKV backup on Mac.
