How to play MKV files on Mac
I recommend trying either MPlayer OS X or VLC Media Player. They are all free.
These excellent and free multimedia players can tackle many of the video formats unknown to QuickTime. They contain a decoder to decode the .MKV files. They will also play many of the formats you will find inside the .MKV file.
Step 1
1. Run iFunia MKV Converter for Mac and add MKV video files
Download and run MKV converter(http://www.ifunia.com/download/ifunia-mkv-converter.dmg), then Click “Add” button to input MKV files to this program.
Step 2
2. Select format and set destination folder
Select whatever format you want in the drop-down list of “Format”. To play the video with QuickTime, you can select MP4 or MOV. To sync to your portable devices, you can select MP4 or 3GP. To edit with iMovie, you can select MP4 or MOV. To upload to video website, you can select FLV. To view .mkv files on your PS3 then select PS3 MP4. At the same time, specify a directory on your computer to save the output files.
Step 3
3. Set output settings
You can change the output settings as you need by clicking “Settings”. Remember that the output file size mostly depends on the Bitrate you set. Larger Bitrate, larger file size. Actually video with bitrate as 768 is acceptable for watching.
Step 4
4. Press “Convert” button to start converting
The convert progress bar shows you how much of the encoding is completed. The encoding time will depend on several variables including: the duration of the video file, the speed of your computer, what other activity your computer is currently doing and the bitrate you set. Sure it is without the problem of audio-video out of sync.
Tips
- Batch conversion. You can add as many videos as you want for MKV to popular file formats batch conversion.
- Merge to one single file. If you want to output one single file for easily playing on iPod, iPhone, PSP, Zune, and many other popular digital players for playback on the go, simply click on the video titles you’d like to merge , then click ‘Merge’ button and uncheck the former separate files if you just need the single merged video file. You may see the image below to have an idea.
- Add watermarks. If you want to add watermarks to your videos as your own logo or just for fun, you can make it in the “edit”→ “Enable Watermark”. You are able to add text and images to your original videos as watermarks.
After all are over, you get the MKV videos you want to enjoy as your wishes. Have fun and hope this helps everyone out there.
