Can you provide any additional details about what codec is being used for the 
.mkv
file you are trying to play? If the codec is h264/x264, please direct your 
attention
to this FAQ article about the wii's ability to play this codec back:

http://code.google.com/p/mplayer-ce/wiki/h264

If that's the case, there isn't anyway this issue is going to be solved. Please 
reply
with codec information.

i seem to be having the same problem except this only occurs with 720p mkv's 
either it 
does this or if it manages to get past this then there is a massive desync 
between 
video and audio where the sound keeps playing but picture freezes however if i 
disable 
frame dropping then the picture does not freeze instead it becomes incredibly 
laggy. Oh 
and this only happens with mkv's that are 720p or 1080p lower resolutions like 
480p 
mkv's play smoothly im currently using 0.75 in 0.76 when trying to play 720p 
mkv's it 
always brings up a DSI exception error and reloads

I'm having the same issue with a Ronin Warriors .mkv except that I've actually 
gotten
it to play (sometimes- though rarely).  It seemed like when I ran USB 2.0 test a
couple times and tried to load the .mkv it occasionally would load. If i 
stopped the
file, however, it would hang at "analyzing stream" when I try to restart it.  
So I've
seen the entire video once and know it runs fine off my harddrive - though not 
every
time (not even close to every time).
USB test says I'm running at 100% compatibility
cIOS202 v2 installed
Mplayer CE 0.76
any ideas?
