Starting point: MKV - Multi-track container for video, audio, subtitles. Only the selected tracks carry over, so pick audio and subtitles first. Same payload as MPEG; rename or convert without quality change. Encode MPG (MPEG-2 / MP2) from MKV at a bitrate near the source, and confirm the audio track before converting.
