mkv video files

Does anyone know what codec that i will need to get to play these video files.... i have the newest divix but it doesn’t work still

Everything you need can be found here
http://www.matroska.org/downloads/windows.html
I personally like Media Player Classic
For more detailed steps, go here (last post on the page)

Finally, if you happen to have a missing codec for the matroska file, use videoinspector to find out which one
