sd expansion card: How do I know if my player will accept the card without risking all my downloads again?

MicroSD cards have not changed in the past few years so I would not imagine there to be a software / compatibility problem you mention. I think you got very unlucky. I bought a 4GB Micro SD by Sandisk and the unit recognises it without any problem. I must admit though, that I had difficulty copying my files from my PC to the Expansion Card. I could not do it with Windows Media Player (even though it recognised the expansion card). To copy files to the MincroSD I had to put it in my cell phone and connect my phone to my computer! Ugh! And one last problem, after using a MicroSD card in the player, the battery life diminished from about 3 hours playing time to about 30 minutes.

I used 16gb sd card w no problem. Never bothered with disc. Must say that I am very disappointed with this unit.

Yes! as long as you do not remove and reinsert the SD Card. Important point if you are listening to a series of lectures or program podcasts as I do.

There is a place for an SD card and also a flash drive. I haven't tried playing in on my unit but I assume it will since there is a slot for it. My kids and friends all love my TV. Super easy to install if you have a drill and a second set of hands.

I have used the USB and SD card reader at the same time without problem. Hope it works for you as well.

I did not have that player ? in case, is it not working !, check acceptable memory of that player ? i think that player has maximum acceptance memory size 8GB.

Yes it will, don't listen to MR. Samsung. With the latest firmware update downloaded online with the players menu option, it will download and install and reboot and then show the Amazon Logo App when you go to the App section. The manufacturer manual was wrong on how to update the player. It said to go online with a computer, download, copy to usb, insert usb, and then choose the USB option to update, which I did first, then the unit would not recognize the file (which was named correctly) as an update. Luckily the unit will do it via the internet connection without using the USB

The instructions could be better written. With a little playing and being a bit computer savy you can figure it out. Unit works fine. Just need that SD card. I used a large capacity one but I feel a lesser one would work fine.

Yup- need to have some data on there...it helps!Too bad the SD card reader is limited to SD and won't play the newer SDHC. So the card reader is limited to 2 gigs. Somewhat useful but not supe-useful for video as many of those files or folders are well over 2 gigs.

It doesn't have to be. However, blu-ray publishers change their copy protection every so often. Samsung will have an update for your player so discs with the newer copy protection scheme will play - but you need to connect your player to the internet so it can retrieve this firmware.This is just the way blu-ray players work - you'll run into this with any brand player.Maybe get a long CAT5 patch cord and just plug it in when you run into a disc that won't play.Also, this player might have an update from usb / sd card function. Not sure about that.

Not unless the vendor issues an upgrade. And, I suspect that it could involve swapping the SD card for a new upgraded one.

I've discovered that this player can play the MicroSD cards (yes, the itty-bitty ones) using an SD adapter. I purchased three 4-gig Micro SD cards at Target (Dane-Elec, $10 each). Using the supplied SD adapters in the card slot, the TF-DVD7377 read two of them OK (yes, I did remember to put video and audio files on them), but one did not (the LCD screen message read "No Playable File"). However, I took the one that didn't read and stuck it in a USB card reader and the Coby player was able to access it. I'm thinking it may have been an issue with the SD adapter card in that case (the tiny USB adapters that came with the MicroSD cards are utterly worthless).

Just make sure that your card fits the slot in the reader. Take your card to the store with you or rely on the card reader specifics to identify compatibility.

I haven't encountered any problems with file restrictions thus far. The only app issues I've had so far is with the video player playing certain video file types.

I am using a 64GB SD card and haven't seen any issues. I don't think there is a limit to the SD card GB but I haven't used beyond 64GB card.
