I'd like to know more about the video capabilities. How easy is it to load/watch movies?

In terms of video quality it's capabilities are not very high as you would probably expect. I believe it includes a program that scans your computer for videos and allows you select which ones you wish to add. They are then converted to a low-quality format and automatically added to your video library so the process of adding videos is pretty easy.

Not really the majority of these device you need to configure it with servers... to get everything free... for example if you want I can set one up and sell it but will be around 300 with all latest movies from theater and a few live channels .. usually updates everyday so you wont miss the new movies in theater.. with no extra cost

Yes, you can watch a movie, but the battery is not so good, and you will have problems to project files using a pen drive, just jpg files.

If you mean mp4 movies then yes. I'm able to connect to my tv & watch things that I've downloaded in mp4 format.

Video streaming seems to be great, even with HD. That's primarily what we use it form, and no complaints at all for that.

When you said 'under 4GB' I thought it likely your problem was with 'over 4GB.' As noted the 'fix' is not only super easy but it also frees up lots of space on your SD card. So just use moo0 to make a 1.5 or 2gb size version of Gravity. Just checked, copy of Gravity is 1.7GB so I think I set moo0 for 1.5 and it came out close as 1.7. Be sure to check out Food Fight, a short by I think LG, on youtube. Just about the most fun 3D demo and great to show others what the Inferno can do. Re: how much I know.... I just happen to have had a head start on the learning curve...much fun. BTW I am using Aimersoft Video Converter Ultimate, a good all around converter, to kill all black bars and play all my 3D videos on the full 8" screen. Some of these movies in letterbox kill about 30% of the already small screen. The very slight stretch on some images is worth it to me for the full screen playback. Feel free to follow up if you encounter more 'bumps.'

I'm pretty sure the device supports mp4 videos and also, the video quality either stays the same or gets better. I was very impressed by the videoplay!

To be honest I don't know but to speak about the product. Save your money, the movies are over priced and really don't make you feel like you're getting anything special.Sony has already started moving past this player so how long they actual support it??I plug it in about once a month to get any updates and after see what they have movie wise ... Very limited on newer movies, I unplug it. Save your money

I used to have this device and it's very good for the price, I played 1080p movies without issues, netflix and such. I have also used VLC to play video and music files from a shared drive on a PC, I understand it's not the same as streaming movies from a NAS, however I do think VLC has that capability, so I don't see why it would not work.

Sorry-previously answered-yes it does take movies-I never knew how to do it-just downloaded directions and tried it-pretty cool

The Netflix app is available (free). I just streamed two movies over the weekend without any issues or buffering. The screen on this tablet is amazing.

FYI, I found out VLC alone will not playback 1080p, at least not without your occasional skipping and stuttering. Install k-lite codecs and run the movies using Windows Media Player classic. It runs like a champ.

Vegas Movie 10 seems to be able to handle the files much better than premeire. I plan to write a review soon (just got back from Europe with tons of footage).

sorry, i haven't done either. from what i've seen though, i don't think it would have any problems accessing videos from a network.

Yes! if you're into movies this would be great for you. My wife and I took this route to cut the cable and haven't looked back. The roku is actually a small "computer" that attaches to your tv and downloads movies and more through your internet connection. If you are using ATT uverse your in good shape. If you haven't already I highly recommend going with a wireless router and connecting your roku through the router wirelessly. This is super easy to connect and operate. So easy a fool like myself can do it. you will then have access to amazon, Netflix, popcornflix, premier, lifetime, spirit clips, and so many more. Netflix will cost you around nine bucks a month (cost per year is just slightly more than we were paying monthly for dish network-) and you have unlimited access to as many movies as you wish to watch. Same deal with amazon prime. spirit clips is like three or four dollars per month and there are multitudes of freebees on the net where you only have to watch an occasional ad, nothing like the endless commercials on the tube. Do it, you won't regret it.

Reasonably easy, depending on your TV. I find it (the HDMI control TV-to-Receiver) to be a bit clunky, but it CAN work.

I might be a little slow - What about expandable memory - can I load music movie and content onto the sd card? or are you all saying it can only read and save content pulled over from another device like my laptop.
