MKV files are developed by the Matroska Group to work as a multimedia container. It functions very much like AVI, ASF, and MP4. The MKV extension signifies a full, playable video file while MK3D is for stereoscopic or 3D videos. There are also the MKS and MKA files which correspond to subtitle files and audio files respectively. Although not a standard file format, MKV is supported by different media players such as the VLC, PS3 Media Server, and Google Chrome. Android devices can read MKV files as well.
For issues concerning MKV files not playing properly on the computer even after all the necessary codecs have been installed, converting the file in an entirely different format may be required. Macintosh computers, for one, doesn't support MKV files playback. In order for these files to properly play on Apple devices, the installation of a more compatible player is recommended. In this case, the VLC Player is ideal. Converting the file into an entirely different format is also a good solution.
