I just recently installed Snow Leopard, and everytime I try to play a mkv file with VLC, it crashes. The result is the same with 32bit or 64bit version of it. According to VLC, they just say to use the 32bit version, but that doesn't help me.

Mplayer OS X Extended won't even load. I do a lot of watching of videos with subtitles, does anyone know of another software or maybe even a workaround to fix the above problems?
