does the finished file play on your PC ?? try VLC
and see if that will play them.

Tried a few ways,VLC on the PC,hard drive directly plugged into TV and a Zidoo media box.Nothing is working.

I think all mkvs should have same A/V-codecs & -resolution, and same suptitle formats, to be able to be merged. I can also imagine running into A/V sync issues if there are audio-delays.

You could try Boilsoft Video Joiner as a trial to merge all on a re-encode & subsequently see if it plays using VLC media player.

download mediainfo and post log of each file. You can delete personal data, only audio and video related stuff is necessary

As long as each mkv file is identical in technical terms you can and should be able to merge them into one file, otherwise there could be problems.

When you are muxing the files are then any error messages in the bottom left window? You will need to post a mediaInfo file report on each file to check. Also it would be interesting to post a mediainfo file report of your merged attempt.

In using mediainfo use text mode so you can copy and paste rather than as some do make an image file. That makes it impossible to lay the details side by side as in a spreadsheet style.

Thank you for anyone that replied,I learned quite a lot.Anyway, I found out the problem,one of the MKV files is corrupt and that was the problem.Sorted that and everything worked the way I wanted it to.Cheers eveeryone.
