There's a Mac application called Subtitle Extractor in the App Store that does this

Thank you for this @larryy ! I needed an SRT to translate subtitles into another language and needed precise time codes, this app does it!

Yeah, it costs $15, too!

Check out the Python script that victornpb posted here, it works perfectly! All you have to do is change the text of the script to whatever version of MKVToolNix you have and then run it with an MKV file in the same folder. I got it to work on the first try... easy, peasy.

Don't forget to buy him a coffee via the link on his page to say thanks.
