Yes you can. The USB interface works quite well. I've tried AVI and MP4 files without issue.

Yes, although I never used it. The directions stated that you can play movies from the usb port.

Not true! You can d/l firmware updates onto your computer and transfer to a USB stick and pop it into your player. Done!

It will only play from a USB drive type device but not a USB hard drive. Would not recommend it for watching movies.

While i have not tried to play AVI or MP4 files through the USB, i don't think the TV will act a media player - the user's manual indicates traditional image and music files are supported, no mention of video files being suppported for playback.

Hello TonySqed The receiver can play with a Android/iPhone or SD card 8GB maybe a 32GB and can only play audio soundslike MP3 MP4 WNA.But unfortunately this is not a Media Player, what you need to get is a Media Player having an USB input and a HDIM output for an external 500GB 1TB hard drive or higher for videos or photos and music. Don't get a 3TB.Hope this can help you.

Just plug a USB drive into this player and you can listen to music. It does not read Windows Media files though.

Rick: the device has a USB port (i just checked my unit), and if you search online for the model number, you'll see the marketing specs under the manual link. It says it supports MP4.... Check it out, and see what you think.

Yes you can, it came preinstalled with xbmc which can play .mkv files natively. Or if you choose you can download an app like MX player from the okay store which can play .mkv files

All I can say is that I have been able to play .mp4 720p files without any problem. I don't know what other formats will work.

Hi. There are various MP4 file formats. If our unit does not read or recognize the file you would like to play, we recommend converting or downloading file as a AVI, DVIX or M4V.

Yes, this unit has a USB port on the side; description in the manual is as follows: "DVD playback condition for disc playback/USB/SD switch button". It can play Mp3 and MP4 files. It supports USB and SD/MMC. In the manual is the following: "Support MP4, MP3, WMA, MPG, AVI, VOB, DIVX, JPEG formats."

Yes it will read dvds just fine but mp4s must be in a particular format to play.

Depends on if the player can play content from the connected USB device. Do a simple test on any thumb drive you have. Load a file or two on it and plug it in. You can also check the player "Supported" file types. It should really specify if it can (or cannot) play USB content... This drive is generic, the effect would be the same on any USB storage device. If your Sony player can't play USB content it does not matter WHAT device you got, it is not going to play... Best of luck! Also mention what model player you have (or want to get) someone might know specific to that device (they are all different). I have a Sony player and could not tell you if it does (or does not) play from the USB connection (never tried)
