[QUOTE="ara, post: 67276, member: 1336"] MKV is the container. The Mede8er plays any MKV in H.264 format. I don't think the media players do the licensing but the chip manufactures like Realtek, etc. Becuase they sell so many chips the media player manufacturers benefit from economies of scale. A company like Mede8er they get a software development kit (SDK) from Realtek (I think that is who they use, can't remember) which includes the playing of the formats etc. and then they create their version of the interface. The difference in a lot of media players pricing is that you also get different versions of Realtek chips with different functionality. The problem with MVIX was both a disregard for clients and the chip they used in the player. That chip would have never been able to do MKV and h.264 but their advertising and promises they made was where the problem was. I have owned the MVIX 780HD and currently I have a Mede8er and Dvico TVIX and both of them are excellent players. I also did a Media PC but it is not always Child/Wife friendly as the players. I think the MVIX put a lot of ppl of the media players. [/QUOTE]
