Title: MKV File Support... ?
Post by: jakobluck on November 11, 2003, 06:52:43 pm
Lately I've noticed that .mkv files (Matroska) have become pretty popular.

However, I can't figure out how to make MC read them, even with all proper filters and decoder installed.

During the MC9 beta, I requested support for .ogm files, but was ignored -- I was able to get around this issue by renaming the .ogm extension to .avi and reburning all of my DVD-Rs.

This does not work for the .mkv container files.

While I do not use MC for video playback, I do use it's powerful cataloguing tools and would like to be able to keep track of all of my mkv files.


Any suggestions?

Is there a DirectShow filter for playing MKV files?  If so, support should be easy.  If not, it's a little harder.

Any more details would help.

I promise we heard.  It never hurts to remind us once in a while, and see if you can get a "second" and "third" on requests.

Thanks for helping!
