PLEX will allow you to play them if you have a PLEX sever installed on the RAID machine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As answered before Plex will allow you to watch MKV files but it requires you to have a computer (or NAS, or similar device) running a Plex server. Plex is going to break the MKV apart and stream the video and audio as an MP4 instead of the MVK(AppleTv doesn't understand the MKV container format). Infuse is available in the app store on a subscription(unlimited updates but recurring cost) or one time fee(only good for that major version and minor updates. 5.0 => 5.1 but not 6.0). Infuse allows you to pull media from Plex, a file share, Drop Box, Google Drive, etc. If will also do any conversion/transcoding on the AppleTV instead of say the device the Plex media server is running on. So a beefy computer for things like 1080p/4K transcoding aren't required. I actually use both Plex(with Plex Pass) and Infuse but for different uses. I have subtitled content in MKV's and Plex wants to burn in the subtitles(very CPU intensive). Infuse just does it all on the AppleTv so my Plex server's CPU doesn't get hammered. The menu system is a lot better on Plex and it has library sharing with other people which is nice.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Use an app called Infuse.
