try wiki searches

MKV is a Container and can hold multiple streams ( like a dvd ISO file )
Video ( X264 , H264 etc )
Audio ( ac3 , aac , vorbis , etc lots more )
chapter markers
subtitles (srt , etc,)
+ more

these programs in this order work very well for extracting into the MKV container
converting , merging , shrinking the mkv

MakeMkv
Handbrake
