.MKV containers are harsh on system resources to play, let alone with HD quality video will only make it worse. right now VLC on Mac lacks in this area with .mkv and a few other containers and other codecs.

Hi to everybody.
I'm an iPhone user and I would like to know if there's any chance to have a VLC client for the iPhone.
I ask the moderator : is this the right place for that discussion?
Thanks to everybody.

Yes, there is a chance, but depending on having a SDK and an iPhone to test it.

Try with QuickTime and perian :
http://www.perian.org. It plays mkv very well. The only thing which is buggy is AC3 thru optical out.
