When I open any MKV file, VLC closes the file after a few seconds without playing anything. I created the files I testedusing mkvmerge from AVIs that play correctly (DX50 and XVID codecs), and the MKV files play correctly with MPC.
The messages displayed are:
access_file debug: opening file `E:\DVD\Projects\LOTR_1\LOTR1_test_sample.mkv'
main debug: using access2 module "access_file"

Is there a problem in mkv parsing or are there settings to change so I can play mkv files?
