Convert MP4 to MKV

My Blue Ray Player does not play .mp4 files (x264)

To convert .mp4 files  to .mkv using ffmpeg
sudo yum install ffmpeg    (To install ffmpeg)

Then use the following command

ffmpeg -i filename.mp4 -vcodec ffv1 -acodec pcm_s16le filename.mkv

I always use VLC to do that. It's really an easy way to convert MP4 to MP3.
