I've never experienced a skip with mine over the three to four months I've had it, and I had a vehicle that vibrates quite a bit.

Actually I can copy something to a disk, but I haven't tried to watch movies on this drive. The only thing is sometimes it just can be recognized by my laptop. And I have to try several times to make it to be recognized.

I have a different model, but same line. It played from a 500GB usb drive fine. The thing is it has to be formatted to FAT32 or it won't read. I use a 128GB flash drive on two different Pioneer AVH models fine as well. According to the manual there are file and folder limits though (I think 15K file/1500folder, not positive though), so 256gb may be overkill to be honest (I do have 10K+ mp3 on my 128 with room for more). I only tried the 500GB out of curiosity.Also a note on the 160gb iPod working... that's because it runs off the iPod o/s, making the size and format irrelevant. It also runs much slower than using a usb drive as a result. I have a different model, but same line. It played from a 500GB usb drive fine.

None but its independent of the os so it should function like any other jump drive

The "marvelous new features" are part of the quite horrible U3 software package, which doesn't work on a mac. However, I can safely say that you aren't missing much by getting rid of the u3 software and using it as a plain flash drive.

Playing time depends on the movie, not the drive. If you mean copying time, that depends on your usb connection.

You have to put a jump drive in there, in the back. * 2GB seems to be the best idea, minimum. * But you can't use just any jump drive, because the slot is deeper and more narrow than you typically find on electronics (thanks a lot, Sony). * And (as if that wasn't annoying enough) I just got one to fit, but the 350 still won't recognize it. * Look at the owners manual, and there is a page about external memory where they suggest a Sony product by a specific serial number. I think that's what I am gonna try. * At the end of the day, the BD-Live content looks to be a lot of nonsense, but I've gotten sorta Ahab/Moby Dick about this task, and will pursue it to pointless depths. Good luck.

I remember looking it up on there website on the manual. I used freemake hand brake is great too. The screen quality isn't that great but it does play files off a flash drive

I've had info disappear if I scroll too rapidly, so I allow the drive to "catch up" Shen scrolling. Although Sony hasn't updated the firmware in quite some time, you might check to see if yours is current. Too bad sony no longer makes a carrousel.

Just wanted to put my two cents in too! I just received mine last night - I have a 3 TB hard drive connected to it - I got it because not all tvs (or game systems) play all the different movie formats - this thing plays them all - I am VERY IMPRESSED, and based on the fact of seeing two USB ports I'm positive I can hook up another hard drive (the cartoon one for the kids). There wasn't any lag works perfect. If they ever add more options to the home menu that would be a bonus!

Yes, it definitely matters. CIB sent me a list of comapatible SATA HDDs. They are ALL 7200 RPM. I bought the Western Digital WD10EADS, 1 teraByte drive. This will hold about 1 month of video from four 700TVL cameras at 60IPS. You may have to format the hard drive before installation. The electronic store where you buy the HDD can help you with that. Seagate, Maxtor and Hitachi also make 7200 RPM compatible HDD. Don't be shy about contacting CIB Customer Service at 408-736-3070. They have been most helpful to me on other things, like setting up internet access.

I think you should get the bigger one if you want lotsa movies. I recently put on about 50 songs and it took up .1 GB, but movies take up lots. I have the 8GB also cuz I love the green!! But you are better off getting more GB and paying a little extra than having to buy a new one because of no space left.

Sandisk has been for me a good value and the right feature set - I've owned several, including the Express, the Fuze and the m200 series. As previously noted, they all have FM radios and the navigation on all of them is pretty much the same thing. Cannot speak to video quality; audio is fine - I've found that for me, the audio is so much affected by the earbuds or earphones used that it makes sense to get good ones.

Seems like you are the same person Who had asked about the 4 gb. I suggest you try PNY proffesional. It produces better image and video
