Officially mkv is not supported but there are users who can import mkv without an issue (like me).

MKV usually has a larger file size than MP4 videos due to the support for the extra features, multiple audio tracks, and subtitle tracks. If you find <strong>MKV<\/strong> videos have smaller size but higher resolution than MP4, this is probably because the <strong>MKV<\/strong> files use a more advanced codec with a higher compression ratio.Reasons include faulty SD cards, technical glitches, audio\/video codec issues, outdated media players, corrupt or damaged video files, unsupportable video file format, etc. Go to VLC Menu \u2013 From Tools menubar &#8211; Select Preferences option.<\/p>\n<h2>How can I convert MKV to MP4 for free?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Run &#8220;VLC media player&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li>From main menu select &#8220;Media&#8221; > &#8220;Convert \/ Save&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li>On &#8220;File&#8221; tab, click &#8220;Add&#8221; button.<\/li>\n<li>Choose you MKV file.  <\/li>\n<li>Click &#8220;Convert\/Save&#8221; button.<\/li>\n<li>Select Profile: &#8220;Video &#8211; H.  <\/li>\n<li>Click on the icon button that has hint: &#8220;Edit selected profile&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can After Effects import WebM?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>And that common Mediacore plug-in bundle also lets you import WebM, with the new VP9 codec for Ultra HD, into After Effects and export through Adobe Media Encoder (AME).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I convert MKV to MP4 on Mac?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fXw6FSfLh90\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can I use PNG in After Effects?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>In After Effects go to File \u2192 Import \u2192 File or double-click in the Project Window to open up the Import Window. Locate the PNG image sequence you wish to use, select the first image, and be sure to check the box for Sequence. *Make sure the import settings are set to import as Footage.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can After Effects Open AVI?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>I know it can be done .. i did a simple codec download of something in work and was able to play and edit AVI files IN AFTER EFFECTS CC after a quick restart of the PROGRAM. I know there&#8217;s a simple codec to quickly download \/ plug and play. Im under pressure to get a vid done for the morning and cant find it.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can After Effects import OBJ?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>1 Correct answer. After Effects has never provided a native\/built-in feature to import OBJ files. Your workflow is to either use a 3rd party plugin such as Element 3D (Plexus, Particular &#038; Stardust are able to use OBJ files but the output is more for a stylized 3D look).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Does YouTube accept MKV?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>For YouTubers, they will meet a common problem: cannot upload the MKV video to YouTube. The reason is obvious that YouTube don&#8217;t support MKV format so you need to convert your MKV video to YouTube compatible format like MOV, MP4 , AVI, WMV, MPEGPS, FLV, 3GPP, etc.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is MKV high quality?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Does MKV lose quality? The quality of an MKV file depends on the codecs used. MKV supports the H. 264 codec, which provides high video quality at a good compression rate.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why is MKV so popular?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>This brings MKV up to par with other file formats on a basic use level. Furthermore, MKV is the most universal and flexible because thus far it can hold any type and number of video or audio codecs in addition to an unlimited number of still pictures, subtitle tracks, and metadata files.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Which player is best for MKV files?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>#1) PowerDVD.<\/li>\n<li>#2) AnyMP4 Blu-ray Player.<\/li>\n<li>#3) VLC Media Player.<\/li>\n<li>#4) KMPlayer.<\/li>\n<li>#5) MX Player.<\/li>\n<li>#6) MKPlayer.<\/li>\n<li>#7) Macgo Blu-ray Player.<\/li>\n<li>#8) Zoom Player.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The format is not currently supported: Importing and interpreting footage items in After Effects Some MKV files may work because of the codec used for compression but you&#8217;re kind of on your own here.
