WP8.1 GDR2 new function exposure: native support MKV video format

Computer shop news: WP8.1 GDR2 update is only pre-installed in the Lumia640 and Lumia640 XL mid-range new machines, but because of Win10 a week ago A bug in the mobile preview update was accidentally leaked, and several models including the Lumia 930 were harvested in advance.

As part of the WP8.1 GDR2 update, Windows Phone users now have native support for the MKV video format. Users can now play MKV format files directly from the Video app without the help of third-party video software such as MoliPlayer. Just save the file to the “Video” folder to find it in the "My Videos" section of the Video app.

Microsoft added support for MKV video for the Windows 8.1 Video app last December, so it's not hard to understand how they add the same features to the mobile version of the system. Of course, Windows 10 also natively supports the MKV format. It is great to see that Microsoft has embraced the mainstream video format to provide users with a more convenient audio and video experience. Of course, those who have not updated GDR2 can play other formats such as MKV with MoliPlayer.
