So, your neighbour, who is a real video compression freak and very experienced in this, gave you a nice self made capture of the last scary neighbourhood party, with an evil grin on his face, its in .mkv format and now you cant play it on your PC ??
Dont worry, we are well aware of the fact that it needs some very well written Guidelines for new users to become master of matroska, else our container format will not become sucessful. On the very left of this page you will find some links to a FAQ, where we are trying to answer question that could have been your questions, if you get in contact with matroska for the very first time.
In addition to that we will try to make a nice set of Guides, as step-by-step explanations of how to use the various tools that can be used to make, edit and play matroska files. Hopefully that way we make using matroska as easy as it can get for you, and you decide to make your next neighbourhood party movie in our format also ;-) ...
