Can you tell me what video formats will play within the personal movies portion.  I have some .mkv movies but they do not play.  They play on the desktop using VLC but not within the Magic Desktop environment.

Thank you,

  VLC is not a shared codec platform like some other players, so its ability to play Matroska and other less common file formats does not extend to third party media players. This fixes the problem: https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases/download/0.66/LAVFilters-0.66-Installer.exe
  
  Run that installer and Magic Desktop Movies will be able to play most video file formats.
