mkv support depends on the codecs of the files inside the mkv. mkv support was added in render-media long time ago (feross/render-media#13), but it all comes down to the codecs used in the video and audio.

Real support must be added in videostream. See jhiesey/videostream#29

I don't really have any mkv torrented or even webseeded to test. Mostly work with mp4's

I can reset the link, choose any. torrent or magnet link from the list where the file ends in. mkv. The content is probably pirated, so use a VPN or anonymizer if it is not allowed in your country.
