    Hi Zepper,

    your MKV's should play directly on your WD.

    WD Elements Play

    While a conversion is of course possible, I would suggest to keep your MKVs as they are and play those, rather than converting them.

    It will basically play everything, so if you are happy with the quality of the Xoom profile you already use, you can use those files on it as well.

    The WD might need a firmware update, but if you convert it to Xoom format (if its a 720p version, use Xoom HQ1 or Xoom HQ2) you should be good for both.
