not sure. what file type is the apple quicktime video? If it's mp4 or mkv, then yes. It will play on the device.

Yes - the video is standard MP4 format which can be viewed by Quicktime or other apps like VLC.

Dwight-I see your question is growing hair so unless it's too late, the answer is yes using either Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center. They should play on a Mac also but I don't know the Apple programs. I watch the programs on my PC almost every day by taking the HDD on the converter and moving it to my PC where I copy the files (though I don't have to) to another disk and then return it. Format is .mts. I use a Buffalo 1T 2.5 USB 2 external HDD. Most any will do.

I don't think so. You need to have software to play it like windows media player or I tunes.

Yes. Once you dock the device you need to turn on the unit . there is a button in the back of the unit that you might have to push to select video. The unit works great for music and to listen to videos. I have an iPod touch and IPad. It works for both.Hope this helps.

Use mpeg streamclip (a free download) to convert avi files to Quicktime for Mac.

I would think you can, since I've down loaded some programs--I planned to try, but my video just went bad-----That's what one get for buying used---I'm not as familiar with Mac as with Windows or Linux, Good Luck

I hate mp4 format...I agree completely; that's the one thing that has kept me from buying any Apple device...I don't want everything in my audio library converted and not be able to play it on other systems. This is proprietary warfare and I'm not bowing down to Apple...

Yes, since it doesn't access the files directly. You'll need an iPhone, iPod, Mac, etc using AirPlay to stream to it.

You can install Raspbmc that supports airplay. But there is a known issue with ios7 support - ios7 devices play only sound, not video.

You need to get MPEG StreamClip from squared5. Or another converter... the website is squared5 dot com This will convert your SD Video to MPEG2 with MPEG2 audio. The problem that blocks the mac from reading it normally is that the mac doesn't understand Dolby 5.1 audio yet. Also, you need to get apples MPEG-2 quicktime plugin. So, $20 to apple, and the free squared 5 application and you're editing in SD on a Mac in iMovie. Editing the AVCHD on a mac isn't yet supported. I'm hopeful that the next release if iMovie will fix this.

Yes via the built-in browser. You can also play embedded videos in the browser.

I have had the same problem. Plays iTunes videos only as far as I can tell. Unless I'm missing something, if you want to play Amazon videos, for instance, you're out of luck.

Yes if your player supports or has a usb port that allows you to play video off a flash drive.

Sorry I do not know if it plays mp4 video files as I have never tried doing that myself.

Yes, it supports MP3, AAC, WMA, OGG, FLAC, APE and WAV. It's just that for videos, it can't play MKV or FLV.

Yes it will play videos from USB. Not sure of the formats, but I think it plays the standards.
