MKVToolNix – Matroska tools for Linux/Unix and Windows
Giovanni Scafora is maintaining packages for
libEBML, libMatroska and MKVToolNix in
Arch's [extra] repository. You can
install MKVToolNix with the simple command pacman -S
mkvtoolnix
You can also view the package sites for libebml, libmatroska and MKVToolNix.
You can get the RPMs for MKVToolNix from my yum repository. First you can add that yum repository with the following command:
sudo rpm -Uhv https://mkvtoolnix.download/centos/bunkus-org-repo-2-3.noarch.rpm
MKVToolNix uses packages from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. Make sure to have it enabled in your installation, too, before installing MKVToolNix itself.
Then you can install MKVToolNix with the following command:
sudo yum install mkvtoolnix
You can also browse the download directories: CentOS/RedHat 7.x.
CentOS 6.x: You can still get versions up to and including v8.5.2 from my repository. Follow the same steps as listed for v7 above.
I provide i386 and Amd64 binaries for MKVToolNix for Debian 9 "stretch" (the current stable) and Debian 8 "jessie" (the old stable).
I do not provide binaries for libEBML and libMatroska anymore as they're already part of the official distribution. If those are too old MKVToolNix even bundles the current version of both libraries.
You first have to
import my public GPG
key because all of my pools are signed. Run this
once: wget -q -O -
https://mkvtoolnix.download/gpg-pub-moritzbunkus.txt | sudo apt-key add
-
You can access the packages by adding the lines below to a file such as /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bunkus.org.list:
| Version | APT source |
|---|---|
| Debian 9 (aka "stretch") |
deb https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/stretch/ ./ deb-src https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/stretch/ ./ |
| Debian 8 (aka "jessie") |
deb https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/jessie/ ./ deb-src https://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/jessie/ ./ |
Now simply run sudo apt update followed by sudo apt install mkvtoolnix mkvtoolnix-gui.
If updating the package lists fails, make sure you have the package apt-transport-https installed.
Debian 7 "wheezy": you can get versions up to v8.5.2 from my repsitory, but you have to active Debian's backports repository if you want to install the GUIs as they're linked against a newer version of Qt than wheezy itself contains.
| Version | APT source |
|---|---|
| Debian 7 (aka "wheezy") |
deb http://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/wheezy/ ./ deb-src http://mkvtoolnix.download/debian/wheezy/ ./ |
I host i386/i686 and x86_64 binaries for Fedora 25, 26 and 27 of MKVToolNix in dnf repositories.
In order to add the repository all you have to do is to execute the following two commands:
sudo rpm -Uhv https://mkvtoolnix.download/fedora/bunkus-org-repo-2-3.noarch.rpm
Afterwards you can install MKVToolNix with the following command:
sudo dnf install mkvtoolnix
My GPG key's ID is 16D2F5DC 10C052A6, and the fingerprint is EB24 BCA1 4BA6 A24F 1427 6FEE 16D2 F5DC 10C0 52A6.
You can also browse the download directories for your version: Fedora 25, Fedora 26 and Fedora 27.
Fedora 13–24: I don't provide updated binary packages for current MKVToolNix versions for these distributions anymore. However, older binary packages can still be found in the download directories.
You can find MKVToolNix and its GUI as a port on freshports.org.
Thanks to Martin Holzer Gentoo does already contain ebuilds for MKVToolNix which you can simply install.
Note: I don't own a Mac. While I do provide binaries I do not offer support for macOS. I don't use that platform, have no programming experience with it whatsoever, and I have neither the time nor the motivation to hunt down issues on it.
At the moment you have two options apart from building the applications yourself:
brew install --with-qt5 mkvtoolnix.
In the past another user, Jonathan Buschmann, used to provide a universal (32/64bits) package for Snow Leopard (10.6), Lion (10.7) and Mountain Lion (10.8) but discontinued his packages after v6.9.1. You can still download his older builds from here.
Götz Waschk is so kind as to build RPM packages for Mageia (formerly Mandriva). The current version is in the Cauldron distribution. The repository for the stable version might only contain an outdated version of MKVToolNix.
You can find MKVToolNix and its GUI in the pkgsrc tree as multimedia/mkvtoolnix and multimedia/mmg, maintained by Lubomir Sedlacik.
You can find MKVToolNix and its GUI in
official
"extra" repository. After adding the rpository to
your list of publishers you can install MKVToolNix with pkg
install mkvtoolnix.
Here are some binaries and source RPMs for MKVToolNix for openSUSE Leap 42.2 & 42.3. You can simply add my repository to zypper, import my RPM signing key and install MKVToolNix. Execute the following once:
wget https://mkvtoolnix.download/gpg-pub-bunkusorg-rpm-signing.txt sudo rpmkeys --import gpg-pub-bunkusorg-rpm-signing.txt sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://mkvtoolnix.download/opensuse/42.2/ MKVToolNix
For 42.3 you'll have to adjust the repository location (the third line) like this:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://mkvtoolnix.download/opensuse/42.3/ MKVToolNix
Now you can install the package itself with the following command: sudo zypper install mkvtoolnix

Older versions: I don't provide updated binary packages for MKVToolNix for versions up to and including openSUSE Leap 42.1. Older versions can still be found in the download directories.
A way to get MKVToolNix running on the latest Slackware is to download the build script available on Slackbuilds.org and running it. It will do everything for you. This script was provided by Andrew Strong.
I provide i386 and amd64 binaries for MKVToolNix.
I do not provide binaries for libEBML and libMatroska anymore as they're already part of the official distribution. If those are too old MKVToolNix even bundles the current version of both libraries.

If you're using the Chocolatey package manager, you can also install or upgrade MKVToolNix with Chocolatey by
running choco install mkvtoolnix respectively choco upgrade mkvtoolnix from the PowerShell. They're usually pretty quick to
update. Their currently offered version is 19.0.0.
All Windows builds for olders versions are available on my site.
Frédéric Boulet is maintaining packages for
libEBML, libMatroska and MKVToolNix in
Zenwalk's [extra]
repository. You can install MKVToolNix with the simple
command netpkg mkvtoolnix or with the graphical
utility xnetpkg.
Unfortunately I do not have access to other distributions and cannot provide binaries for other distributions. If you're interested in providing binary packages for other distributions then please contact me. You'll find my email address on the contact page.
