You can try a free video player on your PC to play these MKV and MP4 files which would be a much easier way to solve the issue. You can try Leawo Blu-ray Player which is a free video player and it can support more than 180 formats.

I use the GomPlayer which you can get here. http://player.gomlab.com/eng/download/
This player works great I have no problems with it and it plays MKV and MP4

Testimonial: "Thanks, but it needs to be something I can install on my dvd player, NOT my PC. I assume gomplayer needs to be on a PC?"

    So as I look at what you got, few options if you have a PC then you are in good hands go use ConvertXtoDVD and you can get those mp4 and mkv files converted and burned on to a dvd and watch them on the player.. Other then that you can use the usb connection and convert to computer watch that way or yea not so many options with that play due to its minimum felxibility ..

SOURCE: No thumbnail Preview of video files in VISTA Ultimate

You will not get video previews on files for which you lack the proper video codex. Furthermore, that codex needs to be accessible to Windows media player. If it is application specific, only available to Nero, etc. it won't work.

SOURCE: cant play wmv files

did you use the divx codec or something else? More than likely you need to go and download the divx.com codex. What player are you using? Windows Media Player I am assuming?

It is not your hardware, you need to download the CODEC (Compression / Decompression) software. Try clicking on the below link to see if this works.

SOURCE: Purchased this Diamond Slim 8GB

Hello,
You are probably a victim of a scam. Its not a good idea to buy mp3 players off ebay or memory sticks. A lot of them are fake or scams. Especially don't buy ones with odd names like diamond etc.. Its safer to stick with brandnames you know such as sony, ipod, etc..
You can read more about mp3 player / memory stick scams on this ebay post. http://reviews.ebay.com/Fake-MP3-MP4-Radio-FM-Player-and-How-to-fix-it-right_W0QQugidZ10000000010907516

How to set the usb port on supersonic sc25 all region dvd player to play mp4 and mkv files

Check the user manual (find one online if you don't have the printed version). It will list the file types that the player can decode and play. If it does not specifically list mp4 or mkv files, you're out of luck. There's no way to add codecs to most DVD players.

Does sinotec dvd player 8150 play mp4

Will DVD Players play MP4 files?

As we know, most old DVD players only support DVD video on DVD disc, they cannot play any video file not to mention MP4 file. Later, some DVD players can play video files on DVD disc. Even later, many DVD players come with USB ports, users can attach USB drive to it, and it can search and play video files on it. However, the video formats they support are very limited. Because DVD video is some kind of MPEG-2 video, this format is supported by nearly all DVD players. MP4 is newer than AVI format, some players doesn't support MP4 but support AVI. Hence, to play MP4 on DVD Players, we suggest you convert MP4 file to DVD-Players-sensible formats like the MPEG or AVI format.

To solve this issue, read this guide: http://www.faasoft.com/articles/can-dvd-players-play-mp4.html

LGDV6H wont play mp4. IT plays well mkv, avi and other formats.You will have to convert files to mkv to play and its very easy. Download mkvtoolnix from http://www.bunkus.org/blog/ and use the program mkvmerge. add your files and mux it. BEWARE after adding and before muxing please select each track and go to 'extra option' and select in compression 'none'. Then mux it and play the mkv file. Trust me it works. It has worked for me.Even mkv files that wont play can be muxed again with the previous settigns and then it plays. Its taht simple.
