Can the Xbox 360 Play MKV?
The Xbox 360 has a built-in media player that has been crippled by Microsoft so that it cannot play a number of different video formats, including the MKV format. You can play an MKV video file on an Xbox 360 by converting it on a computer, then putting it onto a USB flash drive.
Can Xbox support MKV files?
The Matroska Media Container, or simply MKV, is a file format that supports multiple video and audio codecs, including H. 264 and AAC audio. The video game console can also play MKV files using its native Media Player app, but Xbox One limits its support only to container features that provide the most value to users.
Can MKV be streamed?
If you have an MKV video, you can play it in Windows Media Player once it is equipped with a Matroska DirectShow filter (e.g. CCCP, Haali Media Splitter). Unlike Windows Media Player, both Media Player Classic and VLC have a built-in capability to stream MKV videos.
