I can't see why it is a problem to mention other features he would get with another solution. >> The topic is about playing .mkv. That is just a container. What about the >> used codecs?

I've already played plenty of h265 content. On an RPi? With hardware support? I don't believe that. I'm only stating the obvious, that Kodi is absolutely unnecessary to give the OP what he's asking for. There is no denying this. And, he can decide if he wants to bother adding Kodi to his setup just to play mkvs, or if something less extreme makes more sense. If you let him really decide you shouldn't make solutions bad without any proof, only because you don't like them. I asked you already before to explain what makes OpenELEC more complicated, you didn't answer. The only thing that is really obvious that you have no idea what you are talking about. As the founder of yaVDR I have some experiences how complicated a vdr setup can be. As a contributor to OpenELEC I know how simple the setup in OE currently is.
