5.0 out of 5 stars Great Player For Everybody, January 15, 2007

This review is from: ZVUE 250 2 GB Video MP3 Player (Black) (Electronics)

I got 2 of these. One for my husbad that travels and another for the home. I can convert a whole DVD in 2 steps (mpeg2 then dvix) the final file is around 89-129MB depending on the length of the movie. Watch the width size or file may not play. 160-144 pixles is great. 15 fps gets the size smaller. Dr Divx is an older program but works awsome.

Picture clarity on screen great, sound good, battery life up to 2 movies. So far on a 2 gig card ( I got $18.00 new egg) I stored 8 movies , variety of music , and about 120 pictures. Be sure and reduce to size of pictures or it could take up to five seconds for the zvue to adjust it for you to fit. The pictures can play in a slidshow mode. Great settings.

Customer support Awsome. They answer right away at night WOW. Had trouble updating firmware and player froze (my fault). I paniced cause I wanted to give it at Christmas Day, which was 2 days away, and support one day aired me a 128MB card that had the new firmware upgrade and problemed solved. I was able to wrap and give ready with movies working.

My only complaint is their Zapp software doesn't convert the files small enough. A movie with their soft ware is 500-600MB. So Be advised you'll have to use 3rd party software and again watch the pixle width so it will play properly. Drag and drop your converted files via USB into the formated card in it's proper file. I only use Zapp software to format the SD card. If you use their software to transfer files it will want to reconvert it and then size is increaded. If you are not tech savey then software will work fine just be sure to get a 4Gig card.

This Media Player is really worth the price. I did a lot of searching and this one seemed to offer everything I needed without having to spend a lot. It plays clear and the support is great. I downloaded free stuff from the site and will buy another one for girlfriend since she's always using mine.

I did the research and even bought a couple of the other media players, the Ipod Video and the Samsung T9. I didn't like the hassle of iTunes and the Samsung had limited space. The Zvue has an SD expansion slot. I already had a few SD cards left over from my old digital camera so I'm set. Also, the cards are now available up to 8gb. The sound quality is pretty good even with the volume turned up all the way. The video is a little pixelated but it depends on what you're watching and how close you hold it. It's very easy to transfer files and to navigate. Overall, I'm very pleased.
