I know this is old, but I found this topic when searching through Google for a similar problem. This program may or may not work for you, but it did for me. The program is MKVtoolnix, but I prefer Matroska Tools and I found out about it on a French (?) site. Here's the homepage:

http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/

It works through command-lines or Command Prompt/DOS. I was able to extract an XviD video into AVI format with this program. I hope it works for others as well.

I am aware that most would know of this program.

VirtualdubMod doesnt support any of the modern MKV files anymore, its development is more or less stalled.

Mkvtoolnix is in fact the way to go if it comes to MKV files, and it has a nice GUI also ( no need to use Command Prompts anymore ), called mmg.exe. Just get the mkvmerge win32 binaries ( mmg.exe is in the package ) and the mingw runtimes from http://mkvmerge.matroska.org .....
