Assuming you have a Bluray writer, and you have relevant burning software (Nero, or similar), convert to Mpeg using mkv2vob (it's free and BRILLIANT!).
http://www.mkv2vob.com/showthread.php?tid=1
It converts mkv files to Mpegs very quickly and you should be able to burn that with no problem.
Alternatively, update your codecs to include a mkv codec and you should be able to burn it with your current burning software.
Hope this helps
Off-Topic question !
Any idea how to compress mkv files ?
Recently I have ripped a DVD in mkv format using "MakeMKV", and ripping was actually fast, but no reduction in size. (No reduction in quality too, to be fair)
Actually I wanted those to be b/w 1GB - 1.5GB for ~2Hr movie file.

BD-r does not mean better video quality. Thats just the amount the disk can hold. If the file is under 8.5 you can use a dvd-dl, under 4.8 dvd and under 700mb cd-r. Now to play it, it would be nice if you tell us what codecs your player supports.
If I was gonna go through the trouble and expense to actually burn expensive Blu-ray disks, I wouldn't trust anything other than the following two best in class flagship products:

No - burn video with the mpeg file. I'm not sure what the other folder is. I've never had that happen and I've been using mkv2vob for years.

You need to burn the mpeg as video, not data (UDF). Select bluray video or dvd video and you should be sorted

One question - i've downloaded a trailer, which is around 850mb. It is 1080p, but i guess i with higher bitrate, because it is with normal length - the normal size would be around 250-400mb.
The point is - do we have any constrains here?

ntfs can't support by g-note.
I'm trying to transfer some bluray movies over to my note. Is there free software that I'll be able to to use to help me accomplish this?
I prefer a free version but a paid version will do as long as it's not complicated to use. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
MPEG streamclip for Mac. I encode DVD rips to 1080 p mp4 and they play and look awesome!

I do not know what the actual max. bitrate for Mali 400 is, but it does handle both 1080p baseline-profile and 1080p high-profile 4.1 just fine. The maximum bitrate seems to be quite high as everything I've thrown at my own Note has played just fine and most of my files have quite high bitrate, including the 1080p HP version of Sintel.
Samsung doesn't make available all the details of the Exynos chip -- the most important stuff is under NDA -- so the only way to determine the maximum bitrate would be to test it manually, and that could take a good while.
You could try Handbrake. It is one of the more versatile video converters out there, but playing with the video output settings can be a pain the first time.

I have made a thread about Handbrake for the Iconia Tab A500 and included several premade presets there, too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184002
If you are going to be watching on the Note's own, small screen I would suggest picking the high-profile 720p preset and lowering the quality-slider a bit as you won't see the difference anyways, but if you're going to use the Note connected via HDMI to a larger screen then the 1080p high-profile preset as-is would be better.
I would go MPEG streamclip over handbrake that's just me. Read it handles mp4 better which is recommended for the note.

Where do you put your movies? In- or external SD card?
And how do you copy these films? Do you put the external SD card in your computer or via usb mass-storage?
I hope you can help me so I can watch mkv movies on my note.
By the way I am on ICS LPY custom ROM: RocketRom V4 with Speedmod kernel.

Why is it a joke...... Spotify charges the exact same amount for mobile devices.
If Google can get the deals in place and match their library, there is no joke about it, especially if you get in early on for the $7.99 price.

It's 7.99 a month if you sign up for the free trial before mid-june I think? http://www.androidcentral.com/google-play-music-all-access-unveiled
I'm a long-time Rhapsody user, but I've got to say, being able to combine the music I already have or have purchased with a subscription service is awfully convenient. On the other hand, only being able to use it on the web/my phone instead of also on my xbox for living room listening is less wonderful.

Yea I signed up for it because it would be nice as you said for streaming plus songs I already have. But with so many companies offering music services it's going to be hard to have a single solution across all platforms. With this and my xbox/win8 set up I'm pretty much covered.

i really want to subscribe to this but im outside US any ideas how i can achieve this?
I've been on Spotify for over a year, tried MOG, Rdio, everything. So far this has the best interface, with more music in some respects, with notification bar controls, and landscape mode, for 7.99. Great job Google! Just won me
I ditched MOG for All Access. I don't use all of its expanded features, but it does exactly what I need it to do.
I've not previously subscribed to a music service, couple of questions some of you may be able to answer... I have some guesses. Let me know if there are other use cases:
[Q-1] Why is there an option to still upload my music library when I've already purchased all access? I can play anything I want already, on demand or radio-like.
[GUESS-1] Is this to upload music I write, or music that's not licensed through the service (like a certain artist I want is missing, or not commercial yet)? Anything else? Should I "upload" music that I own that is available for streaming play? Will that impact anything like the quality? I'm guessing not, and I'm hoping if it detects a match it won't waste my 20,000 song space, or bother shoving up data it already has a better copy of.
[Q-2] Why can we still "buy" songs when we're all access? I can already play anything Google has. Why are you showing me this? I have seen a few comments (while searching for these answers) of people actually saying they wish their $7.99/mo. subscription came with 10 free songs... Why? That doesn't seem logical.
[GUESS-2] So I can still play it if I drop the subscription?

1) It's a holdover from when Google Music was upload/purchase only and didn't have a streaming option. I already had most of my albums uploaded to GMusic for streaming purposes. Now, though, I guess it's only if you want to upload stuff that isn't in Google's catalog.
2) For when you unsubscribe.

You can't download all access music on your pc, just purchased tracks or your own. Also, Google doesn't have licenses for every label and every artist/album. Uploading your own supplements this. I also suspect their purchase library is larger than all access streaming but I can't confirm this, just guessing.

It's there, you sure you are not looking hard enough?
I checked on my Galaxy S4 and Nexus 10, it's there under the settings. And I am willing to bet if it is one my Nexus 10, it should be on your Nexus 4.
The one thing I LOVE about Google Music/All Access is that it displays the song playing on my car's radio, Spotify doesn't. Spotify is also finnicky with headset controls...sometimes when I hit play the stock Android players kicks on.
But what I do give Spotify props for are the nice little features - the desktop program is really easy to use, easy to create and modify your playlists, easy to see what's new and trending, and I really use the Popularity feature a lot. Also the app has crossfading, which is a little but awesome feature, it's also an easier interface.
I'm really on the fence with this one.
Ok so maybe I missed something somewhere but I've searched and found nothing on this. I went to a program for my son's school today and did a bit of recording. Well I set it to 4k because the clips were all going to be roughly 1 minute so I thought why not get the best quality.
Here's the problem. When I try to play any of the clips it gives me an error that says "Sorry, the video cannot be played". Has anyone had this issue? All 4 clips were that way and when I recorded them I waited for it the complete the processing and all before making another.

Often(almost always) when this happens it's because the file was truncated. This means that you were writing the files to your external SD card and the card isn't fast enough to save the file and it caused corruption. The only solution for this is buying a faster micro SD that is fast enough to keep up with the bandwidth for the 4k. Another thing, 4k on the phone isn't good if there is a lot of fast movement. So in movement scenarios use 1080p. Around the house talking/average movement is ok in 4k.
You are correct, If it can't play a file it creates then what's the point? Well, It does. The only reason it wont play them is if they're truncated(which they are) and nothing is going to play them. If you do manage to find a player that ignores time code or errors it will show that they are flawed incomplete files.
I'm sorry this happened on something like your kids as a subject matter, the phone COULD do a bandwidth test to let you know your card isn't fast enough for 4k but instead it just makes truncated files attempting to save for you.
You need something like this from Amazon(at least class 10)http://goo.gl/bpjEcj
