I've been using this for the last couple years. However there doesn't seem to be any upkeep on it. Its ability to locate metadata via iTunes store is becoming less and less as apple changes their search API.
Anyone know where the source code could be found so someone could take over maintenance and keep it up to date?

Very informative! Thanks for showing clearly how to convert MKV video to MP4 video. I used to do that with Acethinker Video Converter, free and works perfect. It is a cloud based software to convert videos without install any software in your device. Share it here as an alternative to mkvtomp4.
