ScreenPlay Director - frustrating and should be improved by Sudarshan Karkadè I've never owned a media player before and I did not think using one would be so difficult. The technology has been around for a few years and you would think that producers would have understood some basic needs. I wonder if the engineers Iomega also seen their first competition to design this. Advantages: 1) works 2) The connections are easy 3) It looks good 4) has buttons on the front for most businesses - if you lose the remote, you can use your device 5) built-in hard disk 6) allow external USB drives (I have only tried a flash drive and it worked fine) 7) Play AVCHD files from Canon (HG10) without converting 8) Play video without converting flip Cons: 1) my Canon AVI Video (S1-S2 IS and ES) can not play 2) MOV video files from my Panasonic (FZ28) can not play 3) USB connection to PC is flaky sometimes drive is recognized, sometimes not. Win XP, and Windows 7 had the same problem. I have yet to figure out what makes it work - very frustrating problem. 4) Manual is only printed Quick Installation Guide, has no useful information, and takes less than one letter paper (single side) 5) Manual is on a CD that is delivered in HTML format, difficult to use. Why not give a PDF? 6) When you are connected to the TV and turned on, it takes several seconds to start. I have a suspecion that the contents of the hard drive reads at startup 7) Menu selection (with remote control) is difficult to control. Press the button again - nothing happens. Press it again, jumped twice. 8) When you browse to a folder with many files, it displays the first few files. There is no scroll bar, and there is no way to know how many files are present. I could not understand how the page up and page down. This function can not be there. 9) I could not find a way to play video-randomize. If you want a series of home videos and you can see, you look them in turn. 10) If an error occurs (file can not be played), is a pop-up window, and it would not disappear so easily. Press the OK button is another unexpected action. My list: 1) I want a firmware update with a completely redesigned menu design. The current system is very frustrating. 2) This device must accept the most popular file formats (JPEG) without first converting them to play. 3) a printed manual 4) Connect the USB connection issues 5) Speed ​​up the boot process I could convert my video files have been successfully MediaCoder software (free) to MP4 Screenplay and Director, they played well. 42 of 42 people found the following review helpful. Flushed my money down the drain by J. Shinn, this product at Amazon's "Lightning Sale" for $ 199 and I thought, awesome. Iomega has always been around with their Zip drives and what-not, and 2 TB space to collect all my AVI's, MPEG's, MP4, MP3 and JPEG is a platform that they would play great in 1080i ... Nope, it loaded fine, in fact I thought it went quite quickly, but when I put it on. It is SLOWWWWWW, and I do not mean just to start. I changed batteries in remote ... Twice because I do not want to believe that such a simple device can be attached to navigate four menu options. After wading through menus and submenus painfully unattractive, it would still take me back to the File menu, and God forbid that you have all your MP3 in the same folder that is blocked for 10 minutes talking about lock-up, which appears in this hobby. I had to reset 3 times in the first 10 minutes, including physically pull the plug because it was completely insensitive. I am not in the habit of desecrating a product, but usually my options based on customer feedback that I have much, but unfortunately at the time of my purchase of the product was its brand new, and there was no feedback. Forever.
