How can I play MKV movies on Vivo TV through my flash drive? If you are having issues playing MKV files on Vivo HDTV, you may wish to read this post. It displays a workaround to get Vivo TV recognizing MKV video flawlessly.
Why doesn’t my Vivo TV recognize MKV movies on my flash drive?
“Hi guys, I have a fairly new Vivo TV that will not play downloaded MKV movies via a flash drive. It can play MP4 and AVI files without a problem. Is there anything I can do to make my Vivo TV play the MKV movies via the USB stick? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.”
This is probably because your MKV contains a codec that is not supported by your Vivo TV. If that’s the case, you will need to convert MKV to a format that is compatible with your Vivo HDTV first, such as the widely-accepted H.264 MP4 format. Check a guide on how to do the format conversion.
How to convert MKV files for Vivo TV playing?
Software requirement
HD Video Converter (for both PC and Mac)
To do this:
Step 1: Install and run HD Video Converter as the best MKV to MP4 Converter. Click ‘Add File’ button to import MKV source media.
Step 2: Select MP4 as output format
From ‘Profile’ list, choose ‘HD H.264/MPEG-4 AVC Video (.mp4)’ as target format from ‘HD Video’ column.
Important: If you’ve loaded a number of video clips to do batch conversion, please do remember ticking off ‘Apply to All’ option before you start.
Step 3: Set advanced 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: Start MKV to MP4 Conversion for Vivo TV playback
When ready, click ‘Convert’ button to start conversion. As soon as the conversion is complete, you can click ‘Open Folder’ button to get the generated MP4 files easily.
