Will the LG V20 be able to play MKV files? If you run into troubles playing MKV movies on LG V20, you may come to the right place. This post explains a workaround to get V20 playing MKV videos flawlessly.
No audio issues playing MKV video on LG V20
“Hi all, I just I just threw an MKV on my LG V20 and opened it with the stock player. It loaded the video quickly and looks great, it even loaded the subtitles. However, it told me ‘unsupported audio format’. Is it just my phone or has any of you experienced it also? How can I solve my MKV audio problem on V20? Thanks for your help.”
It is probably because the MKV file you are trying to play has a audio track with DTS,DTS-HD, DolbyTrueHD, or something along those lines which I’d assume the LG V20 is incapable of decoding. If this is the issue, I would recommend converting the MKV to AAC MP4 for playing on V20 smoothly. Here’s how.
How to convert MKV files for LG V20 playing?
Here’s what you need
HD Video Converter
Step 1: Run HD Video Converter as the best LG V20 Video Converter. Click ‘Add File’ button to load source files that you want to convert. You can add multiple files into it at a time to do batch conversion.
Step 2: Select output format for LG V20
From ‘Profile’ list, navigate to ‘Android’ and opt ‘LG G4(*.mp4)’ as target format. This profile is also suitable for both LG V20 and LG V10.
Step 3: Custom video and audio settings
If necessary, you can click ‘Settings’ button and go to ‘Profiles Settings’ panel to modify video and audio settings like video encoder, resolution, video bit rate, frame rate, aspect ratio, audio encoder, sample rate, audio bit rate, and audio channels. 3D settings are also available.
Step 4: Click ‘convert’ to start format conversion
As soon as the conversion is complete, you can click ‘Open Folder’ button to get the exported H.264 AAC MP4 files for playing on LG V20 with optimal performance.
