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.

i installed the VLC andriod version so I can play almost any video. Turn off the wifi when you are not using it. It saves the battery. It worked well for me.

It can play and in supports many video formats including FLV.But it doesn't have DTS decoder, so if your video have DTS sound track audio will not played

The good news is that with recent updates, DLNA support is provided. The bad news is that is only supports DVD formatted mpeg2 files. To play other formats, you have to copy them to a USB memory stick and plug them into the USB port.

Yes. Supported disk formats are: BD, BD-R,BD-RE, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD-VIDEO, VCD, CD, CD-R/RW. Video Formats: H-264, VC1, MPEG 1/2/4. Audio formats: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, MP3. Photo Formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF. I just quoted the specs in the manual; it is a very versatile player. But I believe I read a review somewhere stating there was an old and a new VCD format; this unit will play the new VCD format but perhaps it may not play the old VCD format.

I dont use Real Player so dont know about compatiblity, but since this only work with one type of video format it kinda sucks with that, but once you find a way to convert formats the video is clear and sound is like listening to the music. This is still a great item for its price.

Thanks for your question. I don't think this will play DSD. You may want to check with the manufacturer for both format verification as well as transfer procedure. This is an incredible sounding player.

Yes it can. It will play movies and videos right from your stick or usb hard drive. Plays formats like avi,mp4,dvix,xvid,matroksa,wmv,flv and much more.

Actually I purchased the DVD for my brother who lives in other country and took the DVD player with him. We put USB drives and Data DVD's with videos in AVI format, and played them without difficult. Probably some videos were in another format but I don't remember, the fact is that all the videos in the media were played. I don't think it would be able to read video formats from camcorders or Digital cameras without conversion to playable formats.

I am not sure about the video format. I bought this for a Christmas present. It has already quit working.

We have used it as you are stating and it does play the major formats .avi .mp4. .mvk had some issues. I love vlc and use it as a default player on my Mac which I have a hdmi cable direct to tv. .mvk doesn't allow for subtitle selection as it's intended.

If you have Windows 7, the Windows Media Player should play them. If you have an older version of Windows, you'll probably need to convert them, or you can upload them to YouTube (can leave them set to Private or Unlisted if you don't want the world to see them) and let YouTube convert them for you (though I've found that it doesn't do a perfect job of rendering them for you, they seem to be a little choppier when uploaded straight from AVCHD format vs. rendering them to .wmv first).To convert/render them yourself, a good program is Sony's Vegas Studio HD. About $90, but at that it's a lot cheaper than something like Adobe Premier and it does a good job of handling HD video. If you have Windows 7, the Windows Media Player should play them.

It plays HD video from YouTube. The picture looks compressed some, looking similar to the HD video that you would get from Amazon VOD or Qriocity VOD.

I've enjoyed this player since my purchase. On video, a cautionary tale though. I believe you need to encoded in 320x240 for it to work at all on the player, otherwise it will say "file format unrecognized" or something similar. I used Jodix's free iPod video converter, and set it to that resolution and the videos like xvid convert into fully playable files.

I suppose you can. It delivers AVCHD 1920x1080 files, so any modern software should be able to handle it. I know when I preview video, the windows player opens and plays it easily.

I haven't tried all of the formats they claim to work but just about everything I have tried does work fine. For some reason the high def MP4s won't play on mine but the standard size MP4 plays just fine. I have settled on using the VOB format for most of my video and they look fine on my 55" screen. I haven't tried the surround sound with the videos yet. For some videos (kids movies) I rip the DVD to the standard MP4 because the videos digitize fast and the file size is small, about 1 to 2 GB, compared to the VOB file size of 3 to 5 GB. This could be one of the coolest electronic things I have purchased. I haven't tried all of the formats they claim to work but just about everything I have tried does work fine.
