As far as playback, the fact that WMP played them in the past is lucky but it's never been good with MKV. I'd really recommend just using VLC - it handles them very well and without the need for a bunch of tweaks.
As for your conversion issues, my go-to is Handbrake (https://handbrake.fr). It's free, easy to use, and works well for the most part (though I have had some rare audio sync issues in the past).
