Hi Geoff,
I had a look into that device, it is of no appeal to me.
It requires connection to a USB HDD formatted specifically,
or to a PC accessing content from an NTFS HDD. It seems
their software has to be installed, so restrictive with other
media software.

Thanks for all your efforts.

It was bought as a present for my adult daughter, the reason I went for
this device was it is very small and compact, could easily fit in a
pocket. She has a WinTV device fitted to her computer so I assumed it
would be any easy task to copy and saved media to a USB flash drive and
then playback on a TV using the Screenplay.

With larger flash USB drives being very cheap now it looked to be a
useful portable device but, hey ho.

If my 6 year old Philips TV can play the files OK on its built in DVD
player then the Iomega certainly should. Iomega are offering a
replacement so suspect they feel it should play the files but if not I
will demand a refund as 'Not fit for purpose' under the Sale of Goods Act.
