Hello,&nbsp;

first of all I just wanted to say that I love plex and rasplex!&nbsp;

It all works as it should in my films, series and music section.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

However, unfortunately not in my files I capture with tvheadend ([https://tvheadend.org](https://tvheadend.org)).&nbsp; 

The media container / file format is Matroska.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

If I want to play it appears:&nbsp;

Transcoding&nbsp;

Unknown video codex: mpeg2video&nbsp;

and it doesn't start playing.

&nbsp;

other .MKV files my rasplex plays smoothly.

&nbsp;

Is there a solution or can this be implemented?

&nbsp;

greetings

You need to buy an mpeg2 license on [http://www.raspberrypi.com/mpeg-2-license-key/](http://www.raspberrypi.com/mpeg-2-license-key/)
