Share MKV file with Boxee
Boxee - A New Way to Enjoy Entertainment on your TV & PC. Online TV, movies, music, and photos - made easy for couch potatoes.
Boxee is a free, open-source software platform that integrates personal media with Internet media along with social networking. boxee's social networking component allows users to share information about what they're listening to or watching with other Boxee users or friends on social networks like twitter, facebook, etc.
Boxee is designed for your TV and use of a remote control. To get Boxee on your TV you'll need to first connect your computer to the TV screen. You will most likely need an DVI/VGA to HDMI cable (but it depends on the specific input/output on your computer and TV).
Boxee is based on the Award winning open-source project XBMC, and also incorporates the XUL framework (which is the basis for the Mozilla browser).
Boxee can be used to play/view practically all common multimedia formats. It can decode these in software and optionally pass-through AC3/DTS audio from movies directly to S/PDIF output to an external audio-amplifier/receiver.

- .mka : audio only files, can contain any supported audio compresion format, such as MP2, MP3, Vorbis, AAC, AC3, DTS, PCM and soon MPC ( musepack )
- .mks : a so called 'elementary' matroska stream containing any subtitles stream
Matroska
1. Designed to hold any type of codec. (Audio, Video, Subtitle, etc)
2. Designed for editability.
3. Purposely flexible design.
4. Well documented portions, others in process.
5. Initial design is to support presentation container features such as Chapters, Tags, AudioGain, Menus, etc.
Will Matroska be streamable? Yes, but low bitrate streaming like streaming Vorbis, will always be better in Ogg. This is because their design is for different purposes.
