Dear Friend, did you install the Extra Decoders Support package and read the troubleshooting page (Playback section)?

as far as I know mkv extension are like blueray rips, as close to original format as posible meaning that you actually cant even run on a avg netbook/laptop and if they do I dont promise full speed either or a lot of shuttering
I might be wrong but I dont think the n900 could handle those formats without flipping the stylus at you first
I might be mistaken tho

Despite this, the media player in the N900 doesn't like MKV files.

I stand corrected then
the only mkv files i have ran have been very high Q movies, nothing less than 720p, maybe because I only look up torrents of HD
Im sorry If i was missleading then

I thought .mkv files will play on the n900 but the resolution has to be quite low
