It looks good but I wouldn't buy it from that seller.

The JXD 951 has good hardware but garbage software running in the player - we were going to carry this one on our site due to its really good video playback, but the software is soo damm buggy and JXD seems to not want to release a firmware upgrade for this product, but come out with a newer one - which is a bit better but still buggy.

I'll post a video review in the next 24hrs of this product.

Please post the firmware too... and if it's possible the firmware of JXD856

Buttons look a little small and spaced too close together for me.

Not that simple, I have already deleted the files.

To get them I had to get on the JXD forum and post asking for the new firmware, the admin then emailed me the stuff - its just not a firmware file, but also the third party drivers and special firmware upgrading software as well as a word document on how to change the firmware.

I've seen that this JXD products are interesting, this JXD951 with its 4" screen is really attractive and cheap. It was offered for some time in my country, now the distributor have concentrated his efforts in Newman (Newsmy) brand, so no chance to get them locally. But is a tempting product.

Concerning JXD856 is think that its firmware will solve a problem I have with a blank screen device... that's why I asked you to get it. Thanks anyway.
