When I play MKV on my LG TV I can not get any audio but a message "unsupported audio" But it can be played well on my PC. Can this problem be fixed? Thanks.

I have recently purchased a Samsung TV and everything is fine until I try to play some MKV on it. A message reports to me saying the MKV has an unsupported audio. I know little about the audio codec, so is there some easier way to solve this?

Recently many users have reported the issue "unsupported audio" encountered when playing MKV on Smart TV, not only LG TV, Samsung TV, but also Sony TV, Apple TV, Toshiba TV, Sharp TV, etc. So now the following article just aims to explain why this issue happens as well as offer a solution to "MKV file audio not supported on some kinds of TVs".

 

Why MKV File Audio not Supported on Some Kinds of TVs?

The supported audio codec will vary depending on the TV brand and TV model. For example, most of LG TVs support to play MKV with Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS, MPEG-1 Layer I, II, MPEG-1 Layer III (MP3), AAC. Most of Samsung TVs support to play MKV with codecs, like Dolby Digital, AAC, WMA, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, etc. So when you play MKV with WMA audio codec on LG TV or MKV with MPEG-1 Layer I on Samsung TV you will fail with getting the message "unsupported audio".
