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

The short answer is no. The longer answer is this frame (quoting from the manual) "only supports JPEG and Motion JPEG files taken from a digital camera". That means most video formats, especially high definition formats, would not play unless converted to Motion JPEG. It displays JPEG photos beautifully but is not the right choice for video.

The Philips website info says it plays mp4s but nothing about USB connection. I have have never tried to do so.

It will play MP4 will always, and it seems to be 75% with RMVB. I am not sure why it will not play all of my RMVB files? but it does play most of them.

Hello Yasmin. Yes, this unit is designed to play video files in AVI, DVIX and M4V files, from either the SD card, or USB drive, and are compatible up to 32gb.

So you can have an external drive? I don't see why not. There is a mini USB port on the player. It will play mp4's sequentially, the same with pics and music. It may have plug and play capabilities... TommyD

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

I don't know about the MP4 compatability; but I would not recommend this blu-ray disc player. It is unbelievably slow to perform any commands - open, load, close, turn off, etc.

It will play all media file types.... As far as the gb capacity, I have mine hooked up to a 1.5TB external hard drive full of audio/video/photo files and it's never had any trouble streaming any of it.

Simple answer: No. The unit does not have 1) hard disk reading software/hardware (those are complex and built into computer operating systems) nor, 2) a movie decoder built into it. It will play a few audio formats (MP3, AAC, M4A), however, from thumb drives, but it does NOT play ANY VIDEO from sources connected to its USB ports.
