• "How do you burn .mkv onto a regular dvd for a
  dvd player? Okay, Im downloading this anime
  Eden of the East and its in .mkv format. Now
  usually I just download everything in .avi since
  that way I can play it on my computer or burn it.
  Ive never used .mkv in my life and I want to
  know how do you burn it so that it plays on a
  regular DVD player (NOT on a blue ray
  player). So far I only know that you have to
  download the CCCP (Combined Community Codec Pack)
  which is located under filters in order to watch
  this format on your computer."

Part 1 About MKV File Format

• What is MKV file format
• The Matroska Multimedia Container is an open
  standard free container format, a file format
  that can hold an unlimited number of video,
  audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file.
  It is intended to serve as a universal format for
  storing common multimedia content, like movies or
  TV shows. Matroska is similar in concept to other
  containers like AVI, MP4, or Advanced Systems
  Format (ASF), but is entirely open in
  specification, with implementations consisting
  mostly of open source software. Matroska file
  extensions are .MKV for video (with subtitles and
  audio), .MK3D for stereoscopic video, .MKA for
  audio-only files, and .MKS for subtitles only.
• "Matroska" is derived from Matryoshka (Russian
  ???????? m?'tr???k?), which refers to the
  hollow, wooden, "Russian doll", or Matryoshka
  doll, that opens to expose another doll that in
  turn opens to expose another doll, and so on. The
  logo uses "Matroška", with the caron over the "s".
