Hey Guys,
I have a 3TB drive that I use to rip my blu-ray collection to MKV (using MakeMKV). The files go anywhere from 15gb-35gb files (i.e. avatar 33gb). I've been using MacBluRayPlayer which plays these files flawlessly on my mac pro which has been great so far. Now that i'm in the market for a new TV I've been looking into a media center that'll play these files that same way without any issues. Below is what I'm looking for
-Harddrive(s) of stored content
-Media Player that will play MKV (25GB+ files)
-HDMI output (to TV)
I love the XBMC setup. I just tried it out for the first time today and it played my files perfectly plus it has a ton of great features. Can anyone please recommend a media player that will play my MKV files? I'm not looking to stream them yet… just want the ability to play my movies on my new tv with a connected hard drive.
