  1. I can't get into my PS4


    Good afternoon.

    I had one controller left that belonged to my nephew, which I returned to him.

    I finally bought a new controller, but I cannot get it paired. The instructions say that the PS4 has to be on to pair another controller (I have it plugged into the PS4 with the USB cord, it shows as charging by the orange lights that are flashing). When I hit the PS4 button on the controller, it will not let me into the system. I haven't run the PS4 in months, but I can still see my apps puling updates, but I still cannot get in.

    I'm pretty sure this is something simple, but how can I get into my system so I can get my new controller paired?

    Thanks for your help.

    PS4 external play options

    MKV is a container format which can hold unlimited number of video, audio, picture, or subtitle tracks in one file, but PS4 can play MKV files with the following specification:
    • H.264/MPEG-4 AVC High Profile Level 4.2
    • MP3, AAC LC, AC-3 (Dolby Digital)


    Once the MKV you add to PS4 does not meet the above requirements, the problem occurs.


    To solve the issue, there are many methods and here list two of them:

    1. Handbrake is the go to free converter for video files on Mac.

    HandBrake: Open Source Video Transcoder

    Install it and then point it at one of your MKV files and convert to one of the preset MP4 defaults in the Handbrake sidebar. Under "Regular" you should be fine with "Normal" or "High Profile" settings.

    2. A step by step guide on Does PS4 Play MKV.
