If you don't want to remux MKV's on the fly and would rather have then in a readable AVI file then follow this:

1) Open up Notepad and copy the following code:



2) Ensure that the ffmpeg folder location is correct. If not, change it but keep it inside the quotation marks

3) Save the file as a .bat. You might have to save it as a .txt and then change the extension to .bat

4) Drag the MKV file onto this batch file. It will convert it and output the AVI to wherever your MKV file is.

Hi, I tried out this script and it converted my mkv to a mp4. The mp4 plays fine using vlc player, but the file shows up on my ps3 as an unsupported media type. Tried playing the mp4 on my Sony Bravia, but playback was really choppy. Any suggestions?

I should add that video and audio are really choppy on my ps3 too. Basically not watchable on either the Bravia or ps3.

I think mp4 is not a good choice.
You should prefer MPEGTS/AVC-H264/AC3 output format.

Some one please ask Sony to bump up their firmware for Gods sake. This is a fraud not to support mkv in this era!!

i have a similar problem playing files wirelessly on the smp-n100. I thought the problem was the bitrate over the wireless network. It might be the smp-n100 can't handle that fast a stream or that complex a mkv file. I changed the profile to always re-encoding the mkv files to a different format and down grade the video stream bit rate and set it to 720p. See viewtopic.php?p=52709#p52709


hope it helps
