Yeah, sometimes remuxing is necessary from the MKV container. It might be because the DLNA standard doesn't actually support the MKV container, but Serviio works around it somehow. Fortunately, remuxing doesn't use much computing power, so it doesn't work your server hard. The main issue is you most likely lose the ability to FF/rewind, or resume a stopped video. Applehttp (HLS) supports those functions, but it doesn't support multi-channel audio, which is why I don't use it for the Roku profiles.
