After seeing this software in action the mkv support seems to be fairly limited. Doesn't quite seem to like multichannel sound all that well. Haali used to conflict with the software, they got around that by adding in mkv support natively, but there was no way to set subtitles or alternative audio tracks from what I could tell with ArcSoft's mkvs. I could not remember the sound issue I saw, either DTS encoded files didn't play, or AC3 was only 2 channel instead of 5.1.
