Digital Converter Box,ATSC Tuner with Record and Pause Live TV,USB Multimedia Playback with 1080P HDTV Set Top Box (Dark Black)

The 2TB internal HDD capability makes this player unique and worth having. But there are some issues, at least for me. 1. It does not recognize my WD Ext HDD, 2TB, NTFS thru the USB port. 2. It will not play a MP4, H264 movie larger than 4.29GB from an SD card or the internal HDD. SIJUN Customer Support is working the 2 issues. They responded to an email within 24 hours. Maybe there is a firmware update. The player appears to have the same chip set, Boxset F10, as many other $30+ media players. The screens are identical to my two AGPTek players which have the same issues. There are no instructions on mounting the Internal HDD. Know that if a new internal HDD is not pre-formatted, a computer will not recognize the player via USB. I had to uninstall the HDD and plug it into a computer SATA socket and quick format as exFAT; then reinstall into the player. I could then reformat the player to NTSF via the USB port. Be sure to secure the HDD to the circuit board with the provided 2 small screws. The mounting holes for the screws are in the HDD corners and two align with slots in the circuit board. The circuit board slides in groves in the housing. Finally, I found that a 12GB H264 movie will play off the internal HDD if wrapped in a MKV format; not MP4. A good video conversion software can batch convert H264 MP4 files to H264 MKV files overnight. For now the 2TB internal HDD holds all my movies and I am batch rewrapping large MP4 files to MKV. That done, it meets all my needs. UPDATE: Computer Manager which is buried in the Control Panel will see an un-formatted HDD and will initialize it (now I know.) Ext HDD must be MBR formatted; when using the USB port MBR was replaced by GPT in 2010 and the F10 chip set came out around 2010 also. Movies larger than 4.29GB can not be MP4 H264, rewrap into MKV H264 and they play. One last comment: the barrel plug on the power supply is 3.5mm X 1.35 mm. With an adapter, any USB 2A phone charger will power the player, all USBs provide 5V.

USER NOTES:I have had the HAOSIHD 1080P Full-HD Ultra Digital Media Player for a few days and learned a few things. It is awesome once you get the hang of it. It runs warm but not hot. I did get 3 USB flash drives to work with it but max was 128GB each. I could not get an external 2TB or 1TB drive to work and I tried 2. UPDATE: I found an old portable 2TB drive and it works. With the 2tb internal and the 2TB external I now have 4TB. I did install a 2TB internal drive and it worked after I took it back out and cloned an external 2TB drive to it. To add files you can plug it into the computer and transfer files USB to USB. A FEW mp4 videos will let the audio slip sync further behind as it plays but not had the issue with FLVs. The issue seems to be worse if I use the fast forward. Converting the problem MP4’s to FLV seems to fix the problem. I have added some subtitle files, both SRT and SUB and both work fine. I found out that the OSB button which controls the subtitles allows size, color and position control. If you have a file highlighted (not playing) and click the OSB button you can copy a file and move to another folder then select paste. This allows moving a file around with hooking it up to the computer. It can also delete files that way. (I will say my attempt at delete failed but I do not know why) I hand a similar player by a different company that could not take an internal drive and both players seem to have a low audio out meaning you have to turn the audio up on the TV or Monitor, sometimes to max. I also noticed the software both companies use seems to be the same. I did load movies as a big folder ( 1492 ) and TV series in separate folders in a TV series folder 50 series (1926 episodes) plus some music and video files in a music folder. It all works well.Short story is that I can have all that video fit in my pocket ( OK, big pocket ) take it with me and as long as I take an HDMI cable, and the power supply I can play it anywhere.In many states it is not legal but you COULD plug it into a “second video in” on your car back up camera, the audio to the phone jack and have movies in the car.

Really wanted this to work. And when it does it works OK. We need to play MP4 files on a TV with HDMI. 20% of the time the files play just fine (and these files play correctly 100% on every other computer or playback device we've tried). 80% of the time I get a screen of digital effects, see my picture (audio is OK). It can play a file OK sometimes, but not on other tries. I need something that works more than 20% of the time.

This unit worked very well for me, it did not get hot at all while I watched about 4 hours worth of movies on it with a 1 TB external hard drive connected to it. I would suggest that you check you video formats to make sure it is compatible with this unit. Also make sure what ever type of storage device you are using is formatted correctly so the device can read it. I also recommend that you use a HDMI cable instead of the cable provided for better video quality.

I have only had a few hours of use. I have had several media players over the year, my first WD $$ still works fine, but I wanted a Media Player that can handle all my files on one Hard Drive 2T, I have not used the internal HD option yet, it is picky on the external hard drive, the interface is fine, to get the media files to play one after the other I have to put them in one folder. I use my media Player in my Motor Home when cable TV is not available

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  If you ever wanted to view multimedia files onto your TV, it has never been easier. All you have to do is plug this device from hdmi to TV, plug the AC adapter, and finally plug in the interface of your choice. I have a DSLR camera so I would take the photos and videos from the SD card and put it in this device to view my photos and videos on my TV. It has worked great so far.
