    Yes, that works and it’s free. But be aware, it takes a very long time. Quicktime can either ‘rewrap’ or ‘rerender’ with help of Perian.

    Rewrapping is quite fast, but I had problems with the ‘rewrapped’ file, so I had to rerender anyhow. Rerender took forever, both with quicktime as well as with adobe. It’s definately not a fast way to go. I think bottleneck is the quicktime component.
    It was 40 hours against one hour in my case.

    You can open your mkv with Quicktime (and perian installed) Save As Ref movie to have a MOV container of you mkv, open it with MPEG Stream Clip and export it to Prores.
    MPEG Stream Clip is quite fast for reencode…

    You can also use VLC player to convert MKV file into m4v (mp4).
