User's Reviews:

This evening when arriving home from work, I anxiously opened the packaging on my brand new Kindle Fire HDX 7". After spending only a few moments, from setup to navigating through various apps (books, web, videos, etc...), I must say that the device is near flawless. 

Kindle Fire HD 7" is great media player for watching movies, however, just like other Android os tablets, the Android os tablets can only play limited video formats. So sometimes, you will find you can not play MKV files on Kindle Fire HDX 7 properly or missing audio when enjoying MKV videos on your Kindle Fire HDX 7. So how if you want get these MKV HD videos work normally on Kindle Fire HDX 7? Get frustrated? Here you will find the best solution.

MKV is a container format which has many different codecs, so it's hard to handle it. The reason you cannot play MKV videos on Kindle Fire HDX 7 is simple: the default or downloaded video player on your tablet cannot find a suitable decoder for the codec in the MKV file. For example: MKV to After Effects? MKV to iTunes?

To solve these problems, a great method is to convert MKV to Kindle Fire HDX 7 supported video formats (H.264 MP4 is highly recommended) with some help from third-party tools. To get the work done, below I will take Pavtube Video Converter as example to show you how to encode MKV to MP4 videos under Windows 8/XP/7/Vista  for viewing on Kindle Fire HDX 7 without problems.
