MPG to MKV Converter (.mpg to .mkv)

Convert MPEG-1 / MPEG-2 Video Stream (.mpg) files to Matroska Multimedia Container (.mkv) directly on your device. MPG is commonly used for converting dvd rips, broadcast `.ts`/`.mpg` recordings, and camcorder footage to mp4, while MKV is ideal for remuxing obs studio recordings to mp4 for premiere/davinci resolve or extracting audio tracks. Every conversion runs locally in your browser with zero server uploads.
