Working with MKV files is not at all an easy task, as dedicated software solutions are pretty hard to get, so users have to rely on more complex video players that support a wide range of formats.
MKV Player comes to resolve this issue by providing a quick way of playing MKV files without assaulting the user with useless features or options that could make the whole thing a lot more difficult.
However, MKV Player is so simple that it’s almost irritating and some of the most important features of a video player are missing completely, making it just a basic tool for opening MKV files.
Installing MKV Player is a challenge because the setup kit also includes some additional software that the app doesn’t need to run properly. And that’s basically the reason why MKV Player has received the ad-supported badge here on Softpedia.
The interface is very basic and comes only with the main features you’ll need when trying to handle MKV videos. Changing the ratio, taking a screenshot, playing a little bit with the subtitle or creating a playlist and all the things you can do basically end here.
There is no settings interface or even a right click menu, so our test came down to just opening an MKV player and see what the app could do with it.
All in all, MKV Player is quite a strange presence on the software market, and unless you have to, it’s better to choose one of the many advanced video players out there.
