- Multiple audio and subtitle tracks, chapters, and menus in one file.
- Patent-free container — no licensing fees.

Limitações
MKV Limitações
- Not natively supported in Apple's QuickTime or Safari without third-party tools.
- Windows needed codec packs (or "Films & TV" app updates) to play it out of the box.
- Hardware decoders on older TVs and streamers often reject MKV.
- Because it allows any codec, compatibility varies wildly by player.
