Searching the web, we can know PS4's Media Player v2.50 rolls out support for 360-degree videos in MKV, AVI, MP4, MPEG2 PS, MPEG2 TS, and AVCHD formats. And using a VR player like VLC or Dimo and a PSVR HDMI cable plugged on your PC, you can watch 3D Side-by-side (SBS) videos like MKV, MP4 on your PS VR too. But the point here is, only 3D MKV which are encoded in AAC or MP3 for stereo can work on PS VR. AC3 and DTS were removed because of high licensing costs.
