How to add subtitle to MKV video file

On this tutorial I am going to show you how to add subtitle to a .MKV video file. By adding the subtitle, we can then play the video on BluRay player or directly to the TV via USB disk (if the TV supports .mkv video).

To add subtitle to .mkv video, we need a free tool called MKVToolNik. Its a simple application that is helpful for mkv lovers like me. OK I will try to illustrate how to add subtitle to MKV video using MKVToolNik. Make sure you download the software and install it on your PC. Just for you information, MKVToolNik also available for Linux OS. Next time I will post how to install this software on Linux.

1. Open MKVToolNik

2. Press Add and browse to your .mkv movie file.

3. Press Add again and select your subtitle file. I use .srt file for the subtitle. Subscene.com is a good website to download subtitle for your language.

4. Press Start Muxing to start the process. In few minutes, your new .mkv video file is ready with subtitle integrated on it.
