I know it can't right now... but will it be able to in the future?

Also, can it bitstream DTS-HD MA?

You can play mkv files right now via TVersity. With this program, streaming mkv is a possibility if you have the right codecs installed in your computer system.

mkv2vob a program which will remux mkv with x264 video and AC3 audio to a vob file which is playable on the sony ps3.
No transcoding/recompression is done, the streams are simply split and mux into the vob.
Previously there was no way to get AC3 audio on the ps3, only AAC stereo.

V1.5.3 03/Feb/2008
Improved MPEG2 Transcoding, should fix freeze at the start and out of sync.
Updated tsmuxer to latest version

V1.5.2 28/Jan/2008
Fixed bug with long filenames with DTS give "Error creating AC3 from WAV!"
DTS now recompresses to higher 640bit quality instead of 384bit.

V1.5.1 27/Jan/2008
Fixed muxing bug, 1.5 was completely non-functional sorry.

you guys, I appreciate the links and help and all - but I know about mkv2vob

What i'm wondering is if it can do .mkv's in the future via firmware update? And also the DTS-HD MA bitstream...

I was suprised at the allowance of playing divx video as its a pirates codec but matroska I really cant see it ever happening
