I always thought my Realtek 1073DD media player can play any damn thing you throw at it... but guess what... I just downloaded videos from my Sony miniDV Handycam, in DV format.... and my media player does not recognise it!!!

Common, DV tapes have been around for so many years already and is so widespread. Anyone of you been successful playing DV files?

Another thing is mkvs with hiccups, i.e. slight corrupted sections. The player will just stop, not like in a PC where it will skip to the next good section. Why like that one? Is it firmware problem?
