Default Is there any good movie player apps for it that will play mkv files?

I think someone told me of one that you have to pay for a few weeks ago, but wondering if there is some free apps now. For the pc there is a bunch like VLC, Gom and KM player that play every video format. It would be nice to be able to take advantage of the hdmi output.

No Way!!! I'm going to do a search and see if I can find it. It must be on the VLC website I imagine.

I didn't see it on the vlc website. Do you know where to find it? I did a search, but nothing came up. It did mention the ability to play files from your computer remotely, but that is streaming so it wouldn't be HD or great quality I imagine.

I've never been able to find this mystical VLC player for Android when I've looked.. Only VLC remotes. If you find it let me know.

VLC hasn't been ported for Android yet.

That said, the guys that are releasing a PSX emulator and working on an Android N64 emulator, are supposedly going to working on porting VLC in their spare time. http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/04/p...-yongzh-and-z/
