Here's the situation.  I have a file which is a really weird format.  It's in 
.mkv format.  I haven't been able to find anything whatsoever on either Windows 
or the mac, preferably the mac, that will play the file aside from the obvious 
of VLC.  But then, I knew VLC would play it.  that's kind of obvious.  I mean 
really… what won't vlc play?  Anyway, that's kind of not the point, the thing 
is, I don't know of any software that would let me burn or re-encode this 
thing.  If it was an AVI, or MPG, or the like, even a .mov, I'd be fine, but 
being it's mkv I'm not really sure.  I understand I could simply use Audio 
Hijack or something and just capture the audio from the thing, but being this 
is probably over 72 hours long for the entire set of files I have… and yes, 
before any asks, this is totally legal what I'm doing.  I bought this online 
through a digital online store.  Unfortunately, they use this format, which I 
didn't realize ahead of time, so don't even go there!  If anyone knows how I 
can get these on dvd so I can play them in my DVD player in my bedroom you 
would really make my day to share your knowledge.  Usually I'm quite good at 
looking things up online, and normally speaking, I can generally make Google 
cry for its mamma, and can bring it to its knees, but in this case, I'm 
striking out.
