Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars macrose: It wont play Sony miniDV files

macrose | 09/11/2009 | See all macrose's reviews (1) »

Having read all the glowing 5star reviews here for the WD HD TV media I took the plunge and bought one from play.com a couple of weeks ago. I now find that it will not play my Sony miniDV camcorder files which was the main reason for buying it, and the conversion software bundled with the player is'nt very good as the quality is no were near as good as the original file when the camera or my computer is connected to my 100hz LCD tv. I know that the file sizes are very large in the dv format ,but as hard drives are a lot cheaper now I thought this was the way to go. So now I'm having to go to search the web for a proper file converter in order to watch my home videos in there best quality.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Magic Box of Tricks

This little Box is a must have for playing Hi Def Movies. It plays everything I have thrown at it including MKV Files (To get the sound to work go to the Options Menu and Change the sound channel to 2, this worked for me). It also works with my 500 GB Iomega Portable Hard Drive which was a lot cheaper than the My passport drives. My advice is to buy one. Overall I am very pleased.
