Ronnie,

This is a neat little player and you got the best price for it on Ebay. The guy has sold you the genuine article. I say this having just bought the 8gb version from him. I know, getting files to read was a little cumbersome at first. I use Vidrop. You will see the links on this site. This has to be the best conversion programme, so much better than AVI which I found to be a disaster. I use Vidrop along with DVD Fab HD converter, which is a freeware programme, to take off the macrovision (or whatever it might be called) off my commercially bought dvds. I run it through that first and then through Vidrop. There is a good forum related to Vidrop alone which gives you all the operating and download instructions. In order to check the disc capacity I simply connect it to my pc via the usb lead supplied and go to properties on that drive. Mine is a good, solid 8gb. I have also put a 2gb mini sd card in bringing the total capacity to 10gb. Files play really well from the mini sd card, by the way. I use mine mainly for movies. I currently have 20 full length movies along with all episodes from the first series of The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin. I have put anything permantly on the mini sd card but I will use that to put some of my son's childrens programmes on. All in all, I think this is a good player. You will have a little trouble with sync on some of the transfers. For me, this generally appears to be from region 1 or NTSC dvds. I think I might be right in saying this. I find if you push fast forward a little it gets back into sync on the problem ones, but it will drift. Maybe the subject matter of this post should be changed as you are not part of the Ebay scam.
