Written by In the acer category of tablet-tips, i have write many articles about Acer’s tablets, but recently, Acer released their new tablet – Iconia Tab A510. As it’s named, it’s a new upgraded of A500. About it, not long ago, i share the solution to put DVD movies on Iconia Tab A510, you may have read it. However, some readers told me that they also want to watch their MKV HD movies on Iconia Tab A510, no matter 1080p mkv videos or 720p mkv videos playback on Iconia Tab A510 with issues. What’s the problem?
By studying for a long time, i learned that MKV is a container format, it’s able to contain different audio and video codec. There are many free android players can play MKV movies, but not all mkvs can be supported well by them. Regularly, some mkv videos playback on them without audio, some without video, some even can’t be recognized by the players. As you see, using player isn’t the best solution.
There is another way to enable Iconia Tab A510 to play MKV videos. Since A510 doesn’t support MKV directly. If we convert MKV to Iconia Tab A510 compatible video formats, the problem will be solved. According to the survey, h.264 mp4 is the format most liked by Iconia tab a510. Pretty good video quality with reasonable video size. We may try to transcode MKV to h.264 mp4 for Iconia Tab A510.
To make it, a MKV to Iconia Tab A510 converter should be installed on your computer. Then, just import, choose output, convert… It’s simple, but there is someting to note. When you choose output format for iconia tab a510, the “Acer Iconia Tab A500 H.264 video (*.mp4)” is a good choice, because according to my own experience, the settings of this profile is the best to Iconia Tab A510 in the Iconia Tab video converter. Below is the details:
Above is my own solution to put 1080p/720p MKV videos on Iconia Tab A510. Hope it also can give you something useful. Any questions or suggestions, please leave your comments.
