Many many years ago (during undergraduate days), we used to download MKV animes at campus lab (yea yea bad practice, I know).

Typically, we didn't have admin rights to install the necessary codecs for watching those movies. Guess what? A friend told me to download "VLC portable".

Guessed what? It worked automagically.

Now I work on various OSes (Windows/Linux/Mac), and VLC is still my default multimedia player.
