mkv

I want to watch movies without subtitles. And I also like QuickTime for the feature that it could extend the frame to fit the screen (even though it hides some area from the sides).

I have Perian installed and I want to watch mkv files, but they are all with subtitles. In QuickTime in View->Subtitles the only option is Off, but still I can see the subtitles.

VLC plays same movies without subtitles, but it doesn't have this nice feature of extending the movie frame so that it fits the screen.
