Motorola Edge 40 Pro won’t play MKV movies

Having problems watching MKV videos on your Motorola Edge 40 Pro? To play video files on a mobile device, your media must follow some very specific guidelines, otherwise you will encounter issues one or another. In this tutorial, we explain a workaround to convert MKV to H.264 MP4 for viewing on Motorola Edge 40 Pro fluently.

If you’re like me, you’ll probably have several MKV videos in your Motorola Edge 40 Pro. MKV is a container format. The stock player of Motorola Edge 40 Pro doesn’t support playing MKV files yet. Fortunately, such a problem is solved by using a third party media player app. My favorite choice for playing MKV files on Motorola Edge 40 Pro is VLC media player - mostly because it has built-in support and doesn’t require that you install anything else. But sadly this way doesn’t work all the time, especially when you try to play a .MKV file with high bitrates or high resolutions. In that case, I would recommend converting MKV to H.264 encoded MP4 first. This requires a helpful MKV to Motorola Edge 40 Pro converter. The following guide will walk you through how to do this via using such a converter app.
