hi

How can i convert an avi file with h264 to mkv, but without re-encoding it?

Info:
FourCC H264
AVI(OpenDML);8,59GIB, 3h 34min.
Video Stream: AVC (High@L5.1) (CABAC / 2 Ref Frames)
Audio Stream: 2 AC-3 Streams

Usually i use virtualdubmod for demuxing audio streams from an avi and, mkvmerge, mkvextract and mkvtoolnix for editing mkv. But i donīt know how to extract the h264 stream (like mkvextract does with mkv).

please help me

i forgot something

how can i cut mkv video like virtualdubmod can do with avi. I mean, do not splitting into 2 or more file, but remove parts from a movie ...

Take a look at Avidemux. It should be able to do what you want, for the cutting part. Also possibly for the remux (taking the video from from the avi and placing it into an mkv).

Another alternative for the remux is to use something like AviMux Gui.
