I cant seem to get videos to play from anything outside my ipod. What am i doing wrong?

Nothing. Support for videos from SD and USB is very limited and temperamental.

i noticed. it has me so baffled, why even put the effort in giving us 4 different options of audio and video input in this unit and make it such a hassle to get it to work? Ive found the only reliable thing to use to play video is the ipod. I was really wanting to be able to use the ipod for music and the card for video. But i cant get anything to work consistently.

thanks for replying VBLUE. i watched a ton of your videos on youtube before making the decision to go with this unit. Im coming from the D3 myself. been a lurker for years and just joined.

I guess my next question would be, Is there any particular file format that works better than others? Or are they equally as temperamental?

Theres a thread around here from a guy that figured out the best video format for playing from SD or USB media. I never used this feature so I really don't know.

thanks alot man. im gonna play around with it a bit an see what works best for me. Im having trouble converting those DivX videos so im gonna see if i can get these mpeg-4's to do what i want them to do.
