Problems with mkv media files.

N4RPS:
Hello!

Your statement is correct. The whole file is not loaded into memory before it begins to play.

I may be wrong, but perhaps increasing the size of your /swap partition, if possible, may help with this?

I think that the problem maybe that my computer just does not have the RAM for it (the media file was ~3.8Gb I only have 2 GB RAM)...would I be correct in that assumption?

I'm the first to admit I don't know jack about much of anything but I doubt RAM has anything to do with it.  I've played 40GB BluRay movies on my computer and I only have 4GB RAM.

Hello!

Nice desktop, Rok!

I did try additional drivers, but it told me that there were none available. Next I tried Mediaplayer but it told me that i had it, but I cannot find it. MP2 did not work for at all ...I think that I am doing something wrong there.

But I did re-install VLC and now it works perfectly. I must have fiddled with some of its settings.

But I do appreciate your help, even though I was unable to make full use of it - I'll get it all , one day lol!

Thanks rokytnji, i;ll try all those out and report on my efforts. meanwhile, I obtained another copy of the same movie but this time an .mp4 file of only 800Mb. It played fine on Kaffeine, but something strange has happened to my VLC player: it shows a display of many superimposed 'ghosts of other scenes on top of the main one:
