Hey guys

I am having problems playing MKV in Windows 7 Media Center

I have installed various codes, but to no avail

Windows media center still will not play MKV, but windows media PLAYER, will play mkv files

This is strange

But can someone point me into the right direction on how to play mkv files in media center?

Thanks

all i did to get mkv working in MCE was load a reg file - no codecs were needed. check my thread here: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=84&topicid=39034
