    I have an mkv file with damaged audio which I want to replace with different audio (it is the same length). I have used Yamb do to this with mp4 files but it doesn't support mkv. Can anyone please tell me what software do I use to replace the audio? It is ac3 format. Something simple would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Thank you for taking the trouble to reply. I could do it with your help. Cheers!

    After downloading and installing MKVtoolnix, use the MKVmerge GUI (mmg.exe) to open the episode 5 MKV container, deselect the existing audio track, click add and browse to the downloaded from this torrent, and finally click mux to mux a new MKV container with the corrected audio track. Easy!
