    whats the best Video image on a HD tv. & smallest mb or GB it gets a decent image on HD tv. what would you say about a 700mb AVI XVID on a HD TV is this normal for big Pixel boxes to appear. because one movie that was the same same size looked better then the other movie that was the same size.would you recommend a HDMI cable to make this all go away ? whats your theory give me some advice. Bigger files use more room. I want best small format with good picture quality on a HD tv. thanks

    ALL your video …
    ALL your video testings are BULLSHIT!!
    you’re testing 78MB HD FILE!!! try to play the 30GB file not 78MB.

    we wanna see how it handles the big files with hi bitrate not onli easy ones with 80MB size

    the best video …
    the best video format for WD player is H264 & X264 & it 1gb & half or movie storage on the hard drive space. , Apple tv uses this format & the picture is sharp on a hd tv & it wont stretch or show Pixel boxes, AVI 700 mb is not the greatest. I did the study finding the best.good luck people

    Just got one of these, and boy this device is great…. it plays almost every type of file you can think of….. If you have a ton of blu ray x264 rips sittin around, this is perfect for you, if not, you might want to start getting those type of files instead of divx or xvid

    Nice gadget. Please note: you really don’t need to read every bleedin’ thing out to us that’s on the screen, I really can read for myself. Too much audio noise venting from your orifice, instead of the unit’s. Cheers.
