A file with the extension ".mkv" is a Matroska Video File. MKV is the newest container format like AVI and OGM, but much more powerful.

What do I need to play MKV?

Install our playback pack, Lazy Man's MKV.

What player can I use?

Though we recommend Media Player Classic, you can also use Windows Media Player 9 (WMP9), WMP6.4, ZoomPlayer, BSPlayer, TCMP, etc.

Where Can I Find Out More About Matroska?

Visit the Matroska Official Site. Ask your question in the CoreCodec Forum. Another place to visit is the New A/V Formats - Containers section in the doom9 forum. The Project guliverkli provides lots of DirectShow filters.
