What the tool does, how to run it, and what to expect from the result.
MKV (Matroska) is a flexible container for films and screen recordings, often with several audio tracks. This page pulls the soundtrack out of a MKV video and saves it as WAV. WAV is uncompressed PCM audio: large files, no quality loss, and accepted by every editor and DAW. The video is decoded by ffmpeg running in your browser, so even formats your browser cannot play are read, and the file is never uploaded.
