I bought this dvd player because of it's ability to play usb media. However, I found that it can only read jump drives and powered hard drives. It was unable to read my usb-powered Western Digital Passport. I tried adding a powered usb port, but that didn't work.I was impressed that it will play DIVX, .avi, and ripped DVD files. About 2 months after I bought it, it no longer recognized any DVD's. I've looked unsuccessfully for a firmware upgrade for this dvd player.

I bought 2 of these units and they are exhibiting identical behaviors, so I know it's not a fluke; they're just poorly designed. Like Tom and Elena (previous reviewers) I too have had problems with both basic functions as well as advanced features. When using SD cards, the units will only display 999 pictures. That sounds like a lot, but a 2GB card can easily hold more than that. Coby claims these will play DivX movies. Well, they do... sort of. The movies do play, but they are extremely pixilated (blocky) and jerky. They might look good on a 13" screen - MAYBE - but on a 37" screen it looks like crap. As Elena said, the video and audio are usually at least a 1/2 second out of sync and sometimes as much as 3 or 4 seconds. They will intermittently refuse to power up and must be unplugged to get them responding again. (One of mine is on a UPS, so I know it's not a power line condition issue.) They both also will begin skipping and stuttering after about 50 minutes of use with any DVD whether homemade or commercially produced. What else? I can't remember all the reasons to not buy one. The only positive is price though, so you could buy one for your mother-in-law... that is, if you don't get along with her.
