Okay, got the thing today - works as advertise - totally what I was expecting:
- manual is for a totally different firmware - but same H/W by the looks of it
- is a great, LOUD, MP3/WMA player - no complaints except that changing the volume is a little tricky
- playing videos is great - I dumped a whole bunch of pinky and the brain episodes using the conversion tool - I started it and came back 15 minutes later to find it was done - great batch tool
- batch tool does not support .FLV - phooie - got to convert to AVI first.
- multi-tasks - play music on random while displaying slide show
- the camera is awful - actually it's pretty good for the price - photos look like they came from a 15$ digital camera - the sensor is essentially a cheap video camera CCD 640x480 - blows out skin (for us honkies) when trying to take a picture even when it's overcast - the controls don't affect the sensor but the post-processing of the raw data into a JPG, so you can't flatten and darken the image to save highlights
- video looks like it came from a cell phone - the mic seems to be facing the wrong way as you can never hear the person it's pointed at.
- if you are snaping pictures or taking video to playback on the unit, the quality is fine. But on a computer, they suck (see the 2 samples I uploaded to the gallery),
- the game didn't appear to work - it seem to hang
- apparently I should try to find some SuperNES ROMs and DL those to the folder?! I think control will be an issue


Software: TV568 MLC V3.0.4.0
Hardware: TV1F568_V2.0
