If I add subtitles to MKV file using MKVToolnix can I then remove them, edit them, resynchronize them or I have to make SURE the subs are perfect before I put them into the container?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

You can add them, and later remove them if they are not correct, then replace them with a better version. Repeat as necessary.

Many programs and devices that accept MKVs will also accept external SRTs . If that is the case with your usage the best bet would be to include an internal one and for any updates to the SRT include it as an external SRT. Just make sure it has the same name as the the MKV and it is in the same folder. For external ones you can change them whenever you want without going back to the MKV.

I just came across a media player that won't play external srt on mkv files.
Do you know how long the process takes? -
Don't know what you mean by how long it takes. I have both the WD and Seagate media players. Both play externals so do most of my computer video players . To change timing of SRTs most programs will do that in under a minute. To change the text, you can use subtitle programs or even use the windows notebook to make changes. Making changes in a SRT is usually also very quick. And if all else fails, with external SRTs you can always download an SRT from one of the many online sites.
