    There are some directshow filters that can handle raw H.264 streams, otherwise there is mencoder. Be careful that the framerate is detected correctly though, although if the mkv was VFR, then you will never get the correct framerate for the raw stream.

    To get VirtualDub to directly open the file, you would need to use avc2avi to remux to an avi.

    I have no idea what is directshow filters, though i know directshow is API, but i have no idea how the full thing works, there is no tutorial that explains basics, so could someone explain to me?

    If you are using dshow though it would be easier just to open the mkv.
