Adding an Audio Track to MKV on in OSX?

[KBS756]

Hey I was just wondering if there is a way to add an audio track to a mkv on a mac? Preferably in OSX without having to install windows.

Thanks in advance if anyone knows what software could help me out here

Intall Perian, http://perian.org/ which should let you play it in Quicktime. You maybe able to then import it into iMovie, or do a Save As from Quicktime and then use iMovie and add the audio.

The above will not work.
The OP needs mkvtoolnix - http://jonthn.free.fr/MKVtoolnix/

Should do. If not, then Handbrake:

Still, I have no bloody idea why degrade and recode the original video in a time-consuming process, when all you need is add another audio track to an existing file. Which mkvtoolnix does just brilliantly.

hwojtek is off course right

Dave Brian probably didn't understand the question.

Old thread. MKVToolNIX already mentioned.
