Q: Does the unit play 4k mkv files or any mkv files at all off a USB drive?
A: Yes, the UB820 will play 4K HDR MKVs from an external hard drive (It has to be plugged into the rear USB input) but it will not play any of the lossless audio tracks. These include DolbyTrue HD, DTSMA-HD and Dolby Atmos. It will play lossy audio tracks (Dolby Digital 5.1/7.1 or DTS 5.1/7.1). The UB820 will also not recognize chapter marks in any MKV files. Despite these "shortcomings", as a pure disc player, the 820 now stands at the top of the mountain. I have a still brilliant Oppo-203 and from a pure video standpoint, the 820 now edges it out.
A: Yes. It will auto play a DV encoded disc in DV but only if you have DV turned ON in the player settings. If DV is set to OFF, it will play the disc in HDR.

Overall super amazing player, love the PQ and AQ!!
I felt compelled to write a review of this marvelous player. It blows away my previous player, the Sony X800. Though that is a very solid player, the PQ isn't as good and the sound isn't as good either, and no DV (dolby vision). The X800 has a better build quality with more metal but that's where it stops. After hooking up this player, I threw in Baby Driver, which the first chase scene with his red car looks and sounds reference. I've also watched The Office on blu-ray and the upscaling on this player is second to none. It upscales blu-rays and makes them really look close to 4K. Next we watched Prisoners and having seen this movie several times on blu-ray, it was easily the most detailed and crisp it has ever looked. The network streaming is also right on track. I have the Simpsons and Seinfeld ripped to my network hard drive (don't worry I own the discs) and both look great. Now it's standard definition but the network interface is nice and works just fine. I would recommend this to anyone willing to spend a little extra to get the best audio and picture quality for your 4K set. I have a TCL 55" that does DV and it just looks so sharp with this player. It also upscales beautifully. Highly recommended!!

I am not a Technical Expert. My set up Sony 65A80CJ Onkyo RZ-50 plus Klipch Dolby Atmos Speakers 5.1.2 Panasonic UB820-K Xbox Series X HDMI 2.1 Cables Using the dedicated dual HDMI outputs of the 4k player. 1 for the video straight to the tv and 1 straight to the Onkyo RZ-50 for audio. 4k disc picture looks Amazing. Movies Played or have Queued to watch so far SEE photo Below. I do have a XBOX Series X But I really do think the picture is much better on a dedicated 4k player, plus the Xbox does not play movies in Dolby Vision. Value rating is subjective. My 3 star Is someone else 4 or 5 If you have a Higher end 4k tv with IMAX enchaned and Dolby Vision and like watching 4k movies on Physical Media at their best, This player is Recommended. If your tv I was a little hesitant in the purchase 500.00 is alot when you already have a 4k Player XBOX. I am not disappointed.

Better than Sony UBP-X700M
I bought the Sony UBP-700XM and it would skip or freeze on many 4K Blu-Ray's I owned, even new ones! I returned it and found this at Best Buy so I picked it up and all I can say is WOW. Picture is amazing, colors are more vivid than on the Sony, and it played every movie I had FLAWLESSLY. Highly recommend and it's worth checking out open box deals at Best Buy. They're one of the few retailers I trust buying open box from!
