    Media support. I have a lot of mkv format files on my laptop and it's cool showing off the wireless connection between phone and laptop but I fall short if i open a video file and I get a "not supported" message.

    I have Kalemsoft installed but I can't exactly choose to "Open With"

    Some mkv's work, it's just a shame not all of them do. Is this software related in which BBRY can some what fix on the future?

    It's most likely a codec issue. Get the files that don't work, see which codecs they use and check BB10 compatibility.

    Then it's up to you to try to rebuild the files using codecs that are compatible or just not use those videos as showcase material.

    Some MKV files have different encoding, so if the CODEC isn't installed, it won't play, which at least explains the inconsistency.

    True. But the whole idea of showcasing is to playback any videos that my fellow iPhone users can't. Converting isn't "cool" in 2013 lol.

    This is an issue I wish BBRY will sort out. Everything else, I'm more or less happy with.

    VLC Remote is used to control VLC player on PC'S, etc... it won't play videos on a mobile device.
