Chromecast doesn't support MKV files, reencode it to MP4.

You could use a Plex server on your computer to do the transcoding and use Plex app to cast the video to the Chromecast.

Or, if your phone supports mirroring (Cast your Android screen from the Chromecast App - Chromecast Help) you can just run the file on your phone and mirror the phone to Chromecast.

The [redacted] files are MP4
