I'm sure your media card is functioning. I think your issue is either your media has DRM restrictions (google it!!), or the vids are not in the correct format.

 

The SD media player is very picky with file formats. The EASIEST way to get videos to play on your system try this YOUTUBE method

 

1) Go to YOUTUBE (duh)

2) Search and launch any video you desire

3) Copy the URL of the video from the YOUTUBE address bar

4) Go to either Keepvid.com or Savevid.com

5) Paste the previously copied URL into the URL box

6) Select the "MP4" file format (only this format will work with Z110/Z120)

7) Select your SD card as the file destination

Repeat steps to get another video
