mkvinfo is a nice tool to play with mkv files. I was able to extract embedded SRT file (text subtitles) with:
mkvextract tracks movie.mkv 3:eng-forced.srt 4:eng.srt
It seems that mythtv cannot read these embedded tracks. It reads the subtitles if the srt file has the same name as the movie (movie.mkv, movie.srt). Only one dot in the name allowed, bug in Mythtv...might be resolved though.
Otherwise, tsMuxer is nice to remux PGS (.sup) files into mkv files. PGS are bitmap-based subtitles but it seems that Mythtv cannot decode them for now. Well, I did not succeed even with a patch written for this purpose...maybe later.
