                      MKV is not an encoding so it doesn't need a CODEC, it's just a container. Use VLC - if that doesn't work, download a different version (of Babylon 5, not VLC) I've already seen a promising one on pirate bay (but the seed/peer ratio sucks..) Edit: it's a shame I have to lose points because someone else is a pirate :) Or maybe they don't like TPB? Their search feature is kinda bad yes, you could try torrentz.com

                        You 1-voted the OP because El Corazon does not need any codecs? How does that even make sense?

                          No, I 1 voted the fact that if B5 had come from a legitimate source he wouldn't have needed codecs...much as EC alluded to.

                            If he would be using VLC he wouldn't need any codecs either..

                                You can "get hold" of the entire Babylon 5 series....but you'll need a codec afterwards. So what exactly would you expect?

                                    I don't 1 vote usually. It takes a lot to make me do that. :) Of course it doesn't take much to get the 1's in return, must be because I paid for the whole series.... I mean, how stupid is that right? :-D I remember back as a teen I had the most number of purchased video games of any person at our high-school. Unfortunately, I did NOT have the most number of games by far....

                                      a Serious undertaking! I don't have a portable player that would play that much, so I leave it on DVD. :) and I have waaaaaaaay too many DVD's to try to convert my whole collection to anything.

                                        the name and the original message was suspicious enough I didn't click on it. :) I bought all seasons of Babylon5 and didn't need any codecs... :-D

                                        I recently bought a Doctor Who series from Amazon, when they arrived they had zone 2 restrictions, I had no idea I needed to stipulate or manage the zoning (obviously I don't buy a lot of video, we usually hire). And this is how they stop piracy, dammed foolishness if you ask me.

                                          I shouldn't bother with the last few episodes. Retch-inducing sentimental drivel like that should be confined to weekday afternoons, where it belongs.

                                          I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
