Is it possible to play MKV video files?

(1/1)

geomatrixx:
I have read that it should work but even with (OPTION>GENERAL>FEATURE>Video Support) selected, no joy. Anyone have a suggestion or simply "can't be done without conversion (which I can't be bothered to do.

bob:
Yes, it's been supported for a very long time.
MC needs to download a library to do that so you need an internet connection they first time.

geomatrixx:
Thanks you for your reply. I tried to import about 30 video files and the only ones that showed as imported were mp4s. None of the MKV files.

Check your auto import settings. 

bob:
If the library wasn't present when you first imported the existing mkv's were likely imported as data or documents.
You should delete those entries and re-import. When you delete choose ONLY remove from database.

See this page under tips

Then re-delete the ones from the bad or deleted smartlist. Choose ONLY remove from database.

Re-run your import.
