Since June 2015, the project's source code is in the process of being relicensed from GNU General Public License version 2 (GPLv2) or later to GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 (LGPLv2.1) or later to allow using mpv as a library in more applications. As a result, the project had a large influx of contributions. The motive for the fork was to encourage developer activity by removing unmaintainable code and dropping support for very old systems. Mpv was forked by Vincent Lang, also known as wm4, in 2012 from mplayer2, which was forked in 2010 from MPlayer. It is cross-platform, running on ARM, PowerPC, x86/ IA-32, x86-64, and MIPS architecture. It runs on several operating systems, including Unix-like operating systems ( Linux, BSD-based, macOS) and Microsoft Windows, along with having an Android port called mpv-android. Mpv is free and open-source media player software based on MPlayer, mplayer2 and FFmpeg. GPLv2+, parts under LGPLv2.1+, some optional parts under GPLv3 Hence, for this situation, this article recommends several free MKV players with built-in common audio and video decoder.ARM, PowerPC, x86 / IA-32, x86-64, and MIPS architecture Usually, installing the necessary MKV decoder will solve the problem, but many people will get confused or encounter other problems during the installation process. Excluding MKV file corruption, the main reason for MKV files cannot be played is that the default media player does not have a decoder for MKV files, so you will see 'the video is unrecognized', 'unable to play', ' missing codecs/decoder ' error messages, etc. In fact, MKV is just a free and open-standard multimedia container format, what really matters is the different video & audio codecs as well as picture, subtitle tracks, etc.

Are you still suffering from the inability to play the MKV file? The MKV format is a supported format by your device, but you can't play the MKV video on the device, right? If you google problems, you will find that this is a very common problem, such as cannot play MKV on Samsung TV, cannot play MKV on LG TV, cannot play MKV on PS4, etc.
