MKV Video Format MKV Converter
MKV is an audio-visual file format, and the name MKV stands for Matroska Video File. Matryoshkas are Russian dolls, and, like several other video formats, MKVs are container files that can have audio, video, subtitles and metadata ‘nesting’ within them. While it’s not necessarily an industry standard like MP4, MKV is an open-source format that doesn’t belong to one single tech company.
MKV files are not compressed, so they can be much larger files than some other video formats like MP4, although the quality can be higher. Users can also ‘mix and match’ the audio and video elements in the file, or have multiple audio tracks (e.g. for different languages). These features make MKV popular with some filmmakers and editors. Not all media players support MKV. However, MKV videos will usually play on Windows 10, and with VLC and MPlayer, and you can install MKV codecs for other players.

AAC Audio Format AAC Converter
AAC is one of the most common formats for digital music, in a large part because it is the default format for Apple devices and the iTunes program, as well as some Sony and Nintendo devices. AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding. It was developed in 1997 and is now an open standard recognised by ISO, the International Organization for Standardization.
Like MP3, the AAC file format uses lossy compression. With both formats there is some loss of audio quality to create smaller file sizes that let users to store and share music more easily. However, with both MP3 and AAC, most listeners cannot hear this loss of quality. AAC also generally produces higher quality sound than MP3. As AAC is a widely used open standard format for digital music, you can play AAC audio tracks with almost all media players, including Apple Music, Windows Media Player, VLC, and Adobe Audition.
