Mine ended up being a true 2Gb after removing the hack just like the one advertised here, if the one sold here really is a 2GB. I'm using Xilisoft for that. Here is a link to find out if yours is a hacked mp4: http://www.mympxplayer.org/how-to-removing-memory-hack-vt2400.html. It uses a SD Card, which it comes with a 2GB card. We figured if it stinks we'll at least have a 2GB card for our digital camera. I tried upgrading the headset, with the included audio jack converter from 2.5 to 3.5 standard, but it's still not good a bit better with the originals. Podcats is my next honorable mention, adding Podcast was not an easy task in windows.
Maybe not a fair comparison but I also compared it to an old no name brand 1GB MP4 and that old one had better screen quality. I have not put the time necessary to solve the problem. To convert to AVI if your movies/video are not in that format you'll need a different software. My wife has a simple MP3 only player made by PQI called the Joytone and it sounds so much better than this. Since I had never done it before it was an unfamiliar task to me and like anything new it takes time to learn.
Nevertheless, I have not use it in Windows but he claims it's easy. In short your movies/video need to be in FLV, the format used a lot by YouTube, or AVI. I started to have problems when the content in my MP4 exceeded 2GB. Windows would read mine bigger than it really is in my case it read it as a 4GB when in reality is a 2GB. Adding music is easy, converting videos is another matter But not impossible. For me this was not a problem, actually I like that. Now that it works well, after the hack removal,a big complaint is the sound quality.
A big thanks to them all. A lot of them are hacked to seem bigger than their actual size. Maybe later I'll figure it out. My second gripe is the memory size. I signed it, maybe it will help someone later.
It's now in MP4 AKA Chipods' heaven. Perhaps I need something I'm not aware of. Search for MP4 silicon cover. I would like the next player to have a SD card slot, a Bigger screen (at least 2.5"), a 3.5" audio jack, for better sound and of course more memory. You go figure. Maybe that's another Google search for later. As a matter of fact I found on line a site that is to report hacked Chipods to ebay and ask eBay to track down these seller.
My old player also had a SD card slot, very handy. I compared screens with my friend's LG phone and the screen it's just no way near as good as his 50 bucks phone. With BAMVC I chose the size of the screen and resolution. However, my old one died, I try to install a lanyard and used a metal pin, it went into the player by mistake,lol and I shorted. The menu are slow to react, not a big problem, but if you have had a faster player you might be annoyed.
In other words is adequate. Last but not least, I have added.txt files (ebooks) and they are crappy, meaning I can't read them correctly at all. I selected for this Chipod 1.5 to 1.8 at max resolution and it works well. It will also remove your music and for that matter anything you've added to the Chipod, so back it up. Mine came with a Silicon cover, you can find them at eBay for this player. Many of these China made MP4 are hacked (ALL SIZE HAVE BEEN REPORTED HAS HACKED). The player reviewed here does not have a SD card slot, then again I thought I was getting a 4GB player and that most likely would have been enough, I'll explain next. But with 2Gb I have to constantly remove music for adding video shows, depending how long I think I'll be at the doctor's office,lol.
I did a search on line and came upon a fact about many of these Chipods player from China. Amazinly, it cost her 19 bucks out the door. I ended up using my Linux/Ubuntu system to add podcast with Rhythbox 0.11.5, works intuitively. Recently, a friend told me he found a program called Juice to add podcast to his genetic MP3 player in Windows XP, which by the way also works for Linux since is Open Source. A silicon cover could help protect your player and it's screen. Works well and fairly fast,nevertheless not free.
I will most likely buy another MP4 or wait for the MP5 to come down in price. The screen quality is not great but not horrible, for such a small screen and price range. So far eBooks is the only thing I have been unable to use correctly. I would recommend to anyone having problems installing videos to Google it (use Chipod, MP4 from china, etc), rather than using the lame manual. I use a free software called BAMVC for converting to amv. I figured I needed 1.5GB for music more or less and the rest for tv shows, movies, podcast and even eBooks.
Open Source to the rescue.,lol Thank God for Those people working hard to offer free stuff such as applications and Operating Systems. Check it out, specially if you already have one and like it to have a long happy life. I had in mind adding a couple of movies/half hour shows, my music, eBooks and Podcast for the road but specially for our doctor's appointments. Maybe you can get at least a partial refund, I did. The menu will still be there, it won't be removed by removing the hack. Back to the Chipod, as mentioned the player's sound quality is not very good at all.
This player is very small much smaller than the picture makes it look like. The biggest problem I had was with the actual memory, it was sold to me as a 4GB MP4 but it's a hacked 2GB Player. Yet the after matket Headset work fantastic with my wife's Joytune of course her MP3 has the standard 3.5" audio jack. So, when you reach their true max you may begin to experience some problems with them and, for what I have read, it shortens their lives. How do I know. Some may even go for a while before acting up.
I have not used my Windows XP for it, Just to lazy besides it already work easily in Ubuntu. Once I removed the hack it worked well but I lost the games it had in it.
This is a nice little unit, very small and lightweight. 1 Stereo earphone headset with built-in volume control. Seriously, if you do not believe in reading the manual, do not buy this. To turn it off, Menu->Setup->LCD Set->Black, set it to 0. Contents in the box from seller Pro_eb:.
This unit is feature-packed. I bought mine from Pro_eb and it included a converter so standard earphones can be used. The interface is not intuitive. 1 Mini-USB to USB cable. (This is an example of bad translation, I probably would've chosen "Blackout" or "Blank Mode" or "Timeout" or "Power Save"). Another poster commented on needing the smaller earphones for this. 1 Manual (RTFM).
1 MP3 player. 1 Stereo jack converter (from little to standard headphone size). (In reading the manual I found out it even has Karaoke). The blackout mode after 9 seconds is annoying. 1 Pink shiny carrying bag (quickly hidden to avoid ridicule from my teenage son).
It is hard to work with and requires reading the manual for the most part. The software is translated from another language and the translation didn't come across well. 1 Power to USB converter (for wall charging). I read a few other reviews on this item and I found them accurate for the most part.
Luckily, the vendor (Pro_eb) did a wonderful job of replacing the one that was zapped. For the price, not bad, but could use improvements. However, I have noticed some bugs with the FW, and some items that I have seen in other, equally priced players. It seems that these players are sensitive to ESD. I live in a dry region. While reading text files, at times the formating goes heywire and treats whole sections of text as a single line, that cannot be read. This product is nice and slim, plays well too. When going through directories/files, the selected directory does not scroll so that the entire title can be read.
For the service support and quickly atention I will definitly recommend to anyone. My sons have downloaded a lot of Music, video clips. I found this current company is very responsible and helpful. I liked this product a lot.
For that price, I will definitly recommend to anyone. Yet, it has a 1.8 inch large screen, which makes watching a video clip easy. I have downloaded several video clips from youtube and converted to the AMV format using the included software. Also, I realized that the company that is selling the products under the same post changes constantly.
It is so small that you can carry around it easily in your pocket. I liked this item a lot. The resolution is not the best but definitly reasonable. I found this current company is very responsible and helpful.
