Step 1 : Open the VLC media player app on your computer. Note : If you want to run the video on VLC, you don’t need to convert the file type. Follow the below steps to convert MKV to MP4. Although not many know, VLC also helps convert videos into different formats. It lets you play almost all multimedia files, including those in MKV format. VLC Media Player is a free and open-source cross-platform media player software. So if you wish to play videos on multiple devices, here’s how to convert the video format. However, unlike MKV, MP4 has better performance, and most importantly, is widely supported and compatible.
