The product delivers pretty much as promised. I've got a hard drive full of my music, tv shows and movies connected to it. It was a cinch to hook up to my stereo and wide screen monitor using the stereo and component video jacks. Most of my video/audio files play on it with no problem at all. Mind you, it won't make up for crappy encoding but the newer stuff out there looks excellent. I encoded my cd collection using Windows "lossless" and it sounds great over my stereo. I don't notice any difference ... Read More
Rating: - Recognizes Too Few Video Formats
It's a cute little unit, but it just can't read very many video formats. It looks OK when you read the specs, but when I actually tried to get it to play videos from my collection as they are (downloaded from a wide variety of sources). Virtually NONE of them would play.
All of them would have had to have been transcoded (a slow tedious process) to work with this thing.
So, if you're imagining yourself loading a bunch of videos you already have onto an external drive and watching ... Read More

I heard about this from a WD media player review and bought this because it is cheaper. It played 1 out of 10 movies I tried (mp4 and avi). I was too busy to return, so I lost. The WD has played over 100 movies without one failure. So it would take at least 100 of these to equal one WD.
Rating: - Good but needs work
Works well but I have two problems. Sometimes it does not recognize the hard drive so I have to turn on/off a few times. Also it doesn't sort the movies alphabetically, it sorts them based on when I put them on the hard drive (for example if I add a movie it puts it last on the list instead of incorporating it into the A-Z list). Also, customer service is a nightmare, so don't expect any help if there's a problem with your unit. They take the attitude that once you've bought it, it's your problem.
