As expected, Amazon has announced it’s new Kindle Fire tablet in two models Kindle Fire HD 8.9 and Kindle Fire HD 7. The 7-inch Kindle Fire HD has the same size with the original Kindle Fire; while, the new Kindle Fire HD has been given a complete overhaul over the original Kindle Fire. Its IPS LCD touch screen is a higher resolution 1,280 by 800 pixels compared to its predecessor's 1,048 by 600 pixels, and it boasts a new single-layer touch sensor/LCD screen design that Amazon claims reduces glare.
Kindle Fire HD, the most advanced 7" display, delivers rich color and deep contrast from every angle, with an advanced polarizing filter and custom anti-glare technology. It features a new 1280x800 high definition LCD display that brings your content to life. If you are troubled in getting MKV videos to Kindle Fire HD 7, here’s the solution.
MKV is a container format which has many different codecs, so it’s hard to handle it. And from the Kindle Fire HD supported content list, we know that Kindle Fire HD only can play videos in MP4, 3GP, VP8 format, so you cannot play MKV files on Kindle Fire HD directly.
Well, you can get the MKV to Kindle Fire HD Converter to re-encode MKV files to Kindle Fire HD friendly format .mp4 with the best video/audio parameter settings. This tool can also help you to join several .mkv files to one file as you want. If you get other video files like AVI, WMV, FLV, VOB, TiVo, etc for adding to Fire HD 7" tablet, this video converter also works well.
