Works just fine. USB stick in and movie (.avi) was played without hacking (as other than minus described). Quality for the money very reasonable (think the optics personally very good), the remote control leaves much to be desired. So you have to really be careful that you are not broken down, but otherwise really hammer horny bargain. HD port, 5.1 analog output, USB / SD card reader ... what more could you want and then also for the price !!! So I am very satisfied !!!
