Question about Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K with Alexa (2nd gen)

Can I also stream MKV H265 videos from DLNA (NAS with Twonky) to the LED TV? Unfortunately, it only supports H264-encoded videos by default. Would the Lite version be enough for that? I don't need it for Netflix or Amazon Prime.

Helpful answer

I got the 4k stick. Streaming via VLC Player from the NAS works without problems. I also use it for DTS-encoded films on the new Samsung TV, which (for whatever reason - what was Samsung thinking?!) only supports AC3.
However, the 4k MKVs must not be too big because it jerks over WLAN (5 GHz).
