    trying to play mkv files on my ladtop. no problem, however when i try to play them on my flatsreen only avi files are playing on the tv. the mkv files are playing on the ladtop but its just a black screen on the tv. I tryed two different software applications both worked for a while however both dont work now. Just wondering if its my settings or even my graphic card or driver. any help would be great.

    Video files can only be played on the primary screen (i.e. 1st) - set the TV to be the primary monitor for the laptop. You may need to disable the laptop screen in order to use the TV.
