Just as a side note, MKV is a container, so VLC can natively open MKV's it doesn't necessarily mean it can decode the audio and video. Although VLC supports almost every Video and Audio format meaning it shouldn't be an issue. The fact that MKV is just a container is the reason it is such a bummer Microsoft didn't implement it into Windows 7 natively. Probably some copyright issue crap...
Very true and a good point. But if VLC can't play it then probably not a codec I'd want on my system anyways

That would explain it. Sorry for the data corruption, that's a bummer...

Take a look at the last modified date of the videos. Just curious if they are later than you'd expect. Some players will embed metadata in MKVs and if poorly written can corrupt the container.
