• If you have ripped your DVD movies to ISO files

  videos so that you can easily share the movies or

  are definitely in the right place here. In this
  article, I am going to introduce how to rip ISO
  to MKV videos with fast ripping speed via an ISO
  to MKV converter.

Part 1 What Is ISO?

• An ISO file, often called an ISO image file, is a
  single file thats a perfect representation of an
  entire CD, DVD, or BD. The entire contents of a
  disc can be precisely duplicated in a single ISO
  file.
• When will ISO occur? Well, an ISO image file is
  generated when people rip a DVD or Blu-Ray disc,
  and its an archive file which contains all the
  stuff in the disc. When we download movies from
  internet this kind of file format is pretty
  common, especially for some special versions such
  as collecting several bonuses or interviews, etc.
  In this situation a single video file cannot
  display these stuff well, thats why the
  uploaders prefer the ISO format.
• Where are ISO files used? All ISO images end in
  the file extension ISO, and are often used to
  distribute large programs over the Internet due
  to the fact that all of the programs files can
  be neatly contained as a single file.
• How to extract ISO Files? If you dont want to
  actually burn an ISO file to a disc or USB
  storage device, most compression/decompression
  software programs, like the free 7-Zip and PeaZip
  programs, will extract the contents of an ISO
  file to a folder.

Part 2 What Is MKV?

• The Matroska Multimedia Container is an open
  standard free container format, a file format
  that can hold an unlimited number of video,
  audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file.
  It is intended to serve as a universal format for
  storing common multimedia content, like movies or
  TV shows. Matroska is similar in concept to other
  containers like AVI, MP4, or Advanced Systems
  Format (ASF), but is entirely open in
  specification, with implementations consisting
  mostly of open source software. Matroska file
  extensions are .MKV for video (with subtitles and
  audio), .MK3D for stereoscopic video, .MKA for
  audio-only files, and .MKS for subtitles only.
• The most significant advantage of MKV video is
  that it can hold unlimited streams (like multiple
  Video, Audio, Subtitle tracks) into one single
  file. It is just like a DVD navigator built in
  MKV file, which can make you enjoy advanced
  cinematic extras such as multiple audio tracks
  (e.g. directors commentary), multilingual
  subtitles, bonus content and more. The only pity
  for MKV is that it does not support menu and
  chapter selecting like other video formats.

Part 3 Why Do We Convert ISO to MKV?

• Being an optical image, ISO files are mostly
  found in discs, and have to be burned into
  another disc. It is the file format usable with a
  lot of DVD and CD players, especially the ones
  connected to the home entertainment system. While
  the MKV format is mainly obtained from streaming
  media sources. People who are fond of downloading
  movies and transferring them into a disc are most
  likely to use the MKV video file format.
• Before experiencing how to convert ISO to MKV, it
  is necessary for us to figure out why we convert
  ISO to MKV. We choose to convert ISO to MKV for
  the following reasons.
• MKV is open source, making the code freely
  available to developers around the world, which
  offers an arguably higher potential for more
  creative solutions and broader implementation.
• Converting ISO image to MKV makes you enjoy
  advanced cinematic extras such as multiple audio
  tracks (e.g. directors commentary), multilingual
  subtitles, chapter points, bonus content and more
  as it is like a DVD navigator.

  video quality.
