Convert MP2 to MKV — Free Online Converter

Converting MP2 to MKV wraps broadcast MPEG Audio Layer 2 in Matroska's flexible open-source container. MKV can hold MP2 audio directly without re-encoding, or the audio can be transcoded to FLAC, Opus, or other codecs within the MKV wrapper.

MKV's strength for broadcast content is its rich metadata and multi-stream support — chapter markers, multiple audio tracks, and subtitle streams can accompany the broadcast audio in a single file.

Media server software (Plex, Jellyfin, Kodi) handles MKV natively with rich metadata display. Converting broadcast MP2 to MKV with proper tags integrates radio and television audio into personal media libraries.

MKV's multi-track support enables bundling multiple language versions of broadcast audio, or pairing the original MP2 track with subtitles/captions in a single container.
