HDD Media Player



I finally got this nifty little gadget lately.It is a hard disk digital Media Player.The player basically plays movies, mp3 songs and other PC readable files on TV.This technology will replace DVD player in the future once it has a 'standard format'.The quality of the movie/video depends on the quality of the file itself.

When you get this gadget, you need 2 things;
1. HDD Media Player
2. 2.5" Hard disk (its a notebook PC hardisk).The hardisk need to be formatted into FAT32 (not NTFS) to enable the media player to read it. The one I got is a 40Gb hardisk and it can basically house 40 movies !!!!

The items above is less than RM400.

Now I can watch all the movies/videos/songs whenever I want.

There are 2 types of the player;
1. HDD Media Player
2. HDD Media Player with OTG (On-The-Go) function

The 1st one needs you to manually downloaded the media files from your PC to the player but the 2nd one automatically downloaded the media to the player when you connect them together.

The Player is made from a company called Keelai and details can be viewed here (http://www.keelai.com)

WARNING: This gadget is not user friendly and you need some PC know how to connect the player to the computer.There are a lot of compatibality issues before I finally get it to work as I want it to.

So, this leads me to announce a new web blog called Sinemayang (www.sinemayang.blogspot.com).This blog will try to review the movies that I watched. Check it out.
