Flippy turns FLAC into MKV for free: upload the FLAC above and download it wrapped as MKV, sound untouched.

It sounds backwards, but FLAC to MKV is a real need: plenty of platforms and tools only accept video, so Flippy re-packs your FLAC audio inside an MKV wrapper. Nothing is re-recorded: the sound in your FLAC crosses over untouched, and the MKV that comes out is built for high-quality rips and archives with multiple audio and subtitle tracks.

Why flip FLAC to MKV

FLAC is the audiophile's handshake: CD-perfect sound at roughly half the shelf space. It was born in 2001, Josh Coalson; now kept by the open Xiph.Org Foundation, and its real weak spot is fitting in pockets: lossless is still large: and charming Apple's own apps.

MKV is the format that hoards: video, a dozen audio tracks and every subtitle, all in one box. The Matroska container: it will hold practically any codec ever made. That makes it the right destination when what you need is high-quality rips and archives with multiple audio and subtitle tracks.

1
Drop your FLAC file into the flipper above, or click to browse for it.

FLAC vs MKV, side by side

	FLAC	MKV
Born	2001, Josh Coalson; now kept by the open Xiph.Org Foundation	2002, the open-source Matroska project
Type	audio · lossless	video · container
Best for	archiving music with zero quality loss and a genuine size saving	high-quality rips and archives with multiple audio and subtitle tracks
Weak spot	fitting in pockets: lossless is still large: and charming Apple's own apps	playing on TVs, iPhones and editors that never learned to open the box
Typical size	around 5 MB per minute: half of WAV, five times an MP3	as big as whatever you put inside: movie files often run to several gigabytes
Plays on	Hi-fi gear, Android, VLC, most desktop players; iTunes and Apple Music look away.	VLC and desktop players love it; smart TVs, Apple devices and editors often don't.

Questions people ask

Will converting FLAC to MKV lose quality?

No. Wrapping audio in an MKV container doesn't touch the sound itself: it's the same stream in a different box.

Will the MKV file be bigger or smaller than my FLAC?

About the same, plus a sliver of container overhead. The audio stream is unchanged; MKV just adds a video-shaped envelope.

Where will the MKV file play?

VLC and desktop players love it; smart TVs, Apple devices and editors often don't. That's the usual reason people leave FLAC behind: MKV simply opens in more of the places that matter.

How long does FLAC to MKV conversion take?

It scales with length and resolution: short clips finish in seconds, long HD videos can take a few minutes. Files auto-delete within an hour after.
