Whoops i fixed it lol...

for those who would like to know how

first add this line to PublicValues.java in the utils folder >

public static final String KEY_MKV = "mkv";

now in the AndExoPlayerView add this the the MediaSource buildMediaSource method >

else if (validUrl && uri.getLastPathSegment().contains(PublicValues.KEY_MKV)) {

            DefaultHttpDataSourceFactory sourceFactory = new DefaultHttpDataSourceFactory(PublicValues.KEY_USER_AGENT);
            if (extraHeaders != null) {
                for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : extraHeaders.entrySet())
                    sourceFactory.getDefaultRequestProperties().set(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
            }

            return new ProgressiveMediaSource.Factory(sourceFactory)
                    .createMediaSource(uri);

        } else if (!validUrl && uri.getLastPathSegment().contains(PublicValues.KEY_MKV)) {
            return new ProgressiveMediaSource.Factory(new DefaultDataSourceFactory(context, PublicValues.KEY_USER_AGENT))
                    .createMediaSource(uri);

        }

now when you pass an mkv url as source it will play without any issues :)

Happy coding :)
