Followup on My Review "Nice Little Device, Although Lacking Some..."

After repeated failed attempts to format the PMP in NTFS I began to think maybe there was compatibility issue. Since other reviews also stated they had problem in XP formatting in NTFS, I was on a quest to use a different format program. Therein I...

I've changed my rating to 5 stars. I want it to now have a rating of 4 stars, so this will balance out my previous 3 star rating

Odd man out

I never got it to work through my tv. It displays a menu screen, but couldn't show me pics, mp3s, avis, mpegs, anything.

It works fine as a USB drive. Tech support was responsive

Nothing I dumped in the drive was viewable through the tv. I asked support and formatted as fat32 and ntfs. The manual was sketchy at best and the unit itself seemed a bit shoddy while I was piecing it together

Great for Music Videos

The USB cable didn't matter much for me as I don't really use it as a storage device. As a DJ you will love putting your Music Vids on this! Buy a second device just to have backup cables. Why could'nt they make the audio/video cable 1/8 inch?

Great price on a nifty device. Expect to see other companies pick up on the idea. Easy to use interface

Proprietary connectors so if they get lost or damaged, who knows! Manual is often vague. USB cable did not work (double type with second connector on the PC side suppling power)

BYTECC ME-825 Aluminum 2.5" USB2.0 mini/VGA/AV PMP TV Out External Enclosure ( Portable Media Player ), w/ Remote Control

I was very skeptical of this thing. Could this be for real. It is! This little machine rocks! Make sure you are prepared to format your 2.5" HDD in FAT32 or it will not work. XP only formats HDDs up to 32GB! So, you can either get a small HDD or use...
