I've just gotten a new mp4 player (a 4gb one this time) but it doesn't seem to work. I've tried to charge the battery through a usb and through a mains outlet but its a no go. Once i've plugged the player in and turned it on a little hour glass icon comes up and then a screen with a pink battery at the bottom. The screen stays lit for about 30 seconds and then it will go dead.

My previous mp4 player would show a little battery being charged, even when the screen had gone black, or was turned off by the on/off button, but this one is just completely dead.

Am I doing something wrong? The maual is a joke, the only thing I could find with regards to battery life was about electricity:

1.7 Electricity quantity
1.1 Give or get an electric shock the quantity many class manifestation
1.7.2 Mean the low electricity, need to be refresh in time. Refresh the current public affairs to pull out the power key to the appreance of ON necessarily, otherwise can't refersh
Mean the amount of electricity full

I was getting a headache trying to make sense of it. F.Y.I I bought it off ebay and it came from Hong Kong.

Any help appreciated.
