Introduction: How to View MKV Videos on Samsung TV Effortlessy

About: 78 years old, retired with much time to spend.

Have you problems to watch MKV videos on your Samsung TV? Well, the solution is a snap!

Step 1: Conversion, Conversion...

You don't need software to convert MKV to AVI, too much time waste.

It seems my TV check the suffix first (avi, mp4, mkv ecc.) and if it don't like it says NO...

You need only two seconds to solve the Samsung's idiosyncrasy towards the MKV format, simply rename the file from .MKV to .AVI.

Example:

  • enter in command line
  • CD to desired directory
  • type: REN *.MKV *.AVI or REN xxxxx.MKV xxxxx.AVI

The above procedure is valid for .MP4 too.

That's all!
