gonna get one myself saves messing with converting to dvd and multi region as well via code think i will watch a few of me region 1 dvds now :Cheers:
 
Cheers just reserved mine for pick up :banana::banana: Needed a new player and with divx and usb play u cant go wrong :Cheers::Cheers:
 
I got one ages ago from Amazon (still only paid the 'sale' price at curry's!), and it's been brilliant. I use an external 500gb hard drive with a usb connection, and copied all my dvds and downloads to this.

Can anyone tell me if the firmware's improved, as I have a problem with the directory structure in that the dvd player can only interrogate down one level - ie can't have Prison Break\Series1 etc, have to have 3 separate directories eg Prison Break 1, Prison Break2 etc.

Cheers
 
Just picked mine up and luckily the wifes auntie works there so got it for £35.99 :proud::proud:Just gotta hook it up now

just got myself one of these

hs anyone used SATA drives with them? all my USB HDD's are sata interface and it seems to have a power issue. The dvd player cannt provide enough power to the drive.
 
I have bought one and I have tried several different CDs and DVDs and all played brilliantly. Worth every penny.
 
Apart from buying a brilliant cheap dvd/divx player ive saved discs and time cuz i can stick avi files on me usb stick now and play them from there :Cheers::Cheers:
