So there you have it. Pretty simple! In this way, you can effortlessly play 1080p/720p MKV videos on Galaxy Tab 4 as you like.

Tips:

1. If you are not satisfied with the default settings, click the “Settings” button, you can change the settings by yourself. You can change the video size (pix), bitrate, audio channels, etc. Just remember the file size mainly depends on the bitrate, which means the higher bitrate you set, the bigger size you get. According my experience, the 720p and with 1500~2000kbps bitrate is just suitable setting for watching videos on Android phones.

2. If your want to do some editing with your video such as cutting the part you don't need, adding text/image/video watermark or adding the subtitle, just click the “Edit” button to do these work.

3. When Galaxy Tab 4 refuses to play a video, it could be due to one or more of the following reasons:

Unsupported video format (e.g. *.mkv format)
Unsupported codec (e.g. AC3)
Huge file size (e.g. H.264 MP4 video of 10GB+)
High resolution (e.g. 1080p video and above)
Protections (e.g. Digital Copy movies)
