It's played every format that I've put in. I am pretty sure I've done mp4 and mpeg. It really surprised me.

I just tried both avi and mp4 from a flash drive and both were detected but did not play. Bummer

This player is very basic if you connected a usb external drive it will play normal MPEG movies but will not copy to disk you need another model player for that

Yes it will read dvds just fine but mp4s must be in a particular format to play.

The usb slot is only for connecting usb flash drives to the unit. If the USB flash drive has media that can be read; i.e., a standard dvd structure, mpeg4s, mp3s, cds, or jpegs then the unit will play the media. Here is a link to the user's manual for more information: http://s3.amazonaws.com/szmanuals/11333ba7d45d5f0d5256a1e945fa457b

Yes. Its possible but its only for a firmware update and presentation from other display devices that support USB videos like some high-end mobile phones. You cannot use the port to view slideshows or other files eg movies loaded on to the drive.

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.

I've only used the USB port to play moviesin different formats and works great

No. The USB port will only show picture files (.JPG), no movie type files. Look at the Oppo BDP-103 or BDP-105

I honestly don't know the answer to that question. I've never tried playing an MP4 file on that player. I would assume it will since most do, but I've never tried so can't confirm it. So sorry I wasn't more help.

It plays DVDs (not blueray) and avi movies saved to your usb drive. According to the manual it will convert the songs on a music CD to music files on your usb drive but I haven't tried it. Has output to your TV for HDMI and composite video.

I do not know. I returned it after I found out it does not play MP4 files without time consuming conversion.

Yes, it will play mp4s, flvs for video and windows formatted music (mp3, I think)

Yes, this unit has a USB port on the side; description in the manual is as follows: "DVD playback condition for disc playback/USB/SD switch button". It can play Mp3 and MP4 files. It supports USB and SD/MMC. In the manual is the following: "Support MP4, MP3, WMA, MPG, AVI, VOB, DIVX, JPEG formats."

Yes, you can play MKV video larger than 4GBs if the USB stick is formatted as NTFS. If the USB drive is formatted as FAT32, you have a 4GB limitation. If you burn to disc, then there seems to be about a 2GB limitation.It does play PAL if it is a region free disc. I tried to play a Region 2 disc and it didn't recognize it.

Yes it will play every video file ive tried. i will say i had trouble connecting a passport it didn't show the files. but a usb thumb or sc card played no problem. it recognized a usb drive attached but didn't show the movie. maybe i need to do something on my passport end but still yes it does. not to mention it still does everything your phone can as far as apps browse with firefox etc

I formatted a thumb-drive as Linux EXT4 format and copied a 500MB Mpeg-4 video to the drive. I unmounted it from my Linux system and plugged the drive into my Chromebook 14-Q USB3 port (on the left edge). When I did that a "file browser" opened up and it showed the file listing of my video. When I double-clicked on the MP4 file the video played with audio. I was very pleasantly surprised. Depending on your storage media format and your video recording format, your mileage may vary. Good luck!
