• I'm trying to send some videos to someone with an iPad via a Dropbox link and the screen is showing blank.

    Total size is just under 500MB.

    They're in MKV as they were converted from VHS.

    Is that likely to be the issue? Or is it Dropbox? (They show on an Android mobile and on a PC browser).

    I need to make this process as painless as possible so don't want to ask them any questions or ask them to do or download anything.

    Any suggestions?

    I may still have an iCloud account, so wondered if you can upload to that and email a link.

    Any pointers much appreciated.

    Cheers.

  • just use handbrake to convert the .mkv to an .mp4, and then upload to vimeo, and then send them a link from there or wetransfer the .mp4 file.

    .mkv is a weird file format, and it's easier to just make it a .mp4 for viewing/transferring purposes.
