"I have downloaded some 720p MKV movie from internet on Mac and I think it must be pretty cool to watch MKV videos on the go with my newly bought iPad 2. Please give me some advise on how to convert these MKV files to my iPad 2?"
Well, a free way to solve problems like this is use HandBrake to convert MKV videos to MPEG-4 format. Handbrake is a totally free program and very easy to be operated. However, it only supports to convert videos to MKV or MP4 format. For replacement, I'd like to recommend a more advanced MKV to iPad 2 Converter tool - Enolsoft Video to iPad Converter for Mac, which supports to convert MKV formats to any iPad 2 supported video and audio formats on Mac quickly and easily.
