How to Install MKVToolNix 9.8.0 on Ubuntu 16.04, 16.10

     MKVtoolnix is a set of tools to create, alter, split, join and inspect Matroska files(mkv). With these tools one can get information about (mkvinfo) Matroska files, extract tracks/data from (mkvextract) Matroska files and create (mkvmerge) Matroska files from other media files. Matroska is a multimedia file format aiming to become THE new container format for the future. Use MKVCleaver or gMKVExtractGUI to extract/demultiplex mkv video and audio files.

MKVToolNix 9.8.0 changelog

•  mkvmerge: VobSub in Matroska: mkvmerge will now create and use a default
    index for VobSub tracks read from Matroska files that are missing their
    CodecPrivate element (which normally contains said index).
• GUI: added checks for several common problems with the installation. These
    checks will be executed when the GUI starts, and any problems will be
    reported to the user.
• mkvmerge: added the ISO 639-2 language codes "qaa" and "qad" (both are
    titled "reserved for local use") as both are used often in France. See #1848
    for more information.
• mkvmerge: the JSON identification result now includes a track's codec delay
    if set (only for Matroska source files). The JSON schema version has been
    bumped to 6.
• mkvmerge: MPEG TS: added a workaround for files where the subtitle packets
    are multiplexed properly, but where their timestamps are way off from the
    audio and video timestamps.
• mkvmerge: added support for Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) subtitles
    (CodecID `S_DVBSUB`). They can be read from MPEG transport streams and from
    Matroska files.
• See changelog for more details
