It plays AVI and MP4 files from USB drives and SD cardsReview date: 2010-08-18 Rating: 8 out of 10If you download movies and want to play AVI and MP4 files from the USB or SD card reader, this is what you want. This is the new model that replaces Coby TF-DVD7377 which is no longer in production, I ordered a 77 from Amazon and got a 79 in the mail and decided to try it out before sending back. Everything you read for the TF-DVD7377 player should apply to this one as well, even though this is the third review for this particular one.
I am giving it a 4 star because I could not find a reliable DVD and AVI-via-USB player of this size except for the Nextbase CLICK10 which is 4 times more expensive, although the best in its kind. This player IS cheaply made, flimsy, and the quality might not be the best, but it does what I wanted which is to play cartoons for my 2.5 year old while I watch my favorite shows. And play them from a USB or SD card and maybe an antic round object called a CD or DVD. I also bought a "Car Headrest Mount for 7 inch Portable DVD Player" (search on eBay like that) so that I can use this player on long trips and it does the job well.
I also connected a 500MB external portable HD via USB cable and was able to play all my downloaded movies and music while running on battery power alone. Although it will eat the battery fast.
While I have not used it to watch my favorite shows, I can tell you that while playing a 700MB AVI of Toy Story or Finding Nemo it does a fantastic job with great quality and definition. No big pixels or distortion of any kind. In fact, it plays them better than my ACER netbook since this screen can be viewed from any angle.
When selecting the input as USB or SD, the folder structure presented is like in windows and easy to navigate. The media needs to be formatted in FAT and not NTFS file systems.
Overall, not a technological marvel, but it does what I got it for and let's hope we don't drop it or it will be a nice paperweight :)

ReviewsBattery won't chargeReview date: 2010-07-23 Rating: 2 out of 10AVI movies that would play from DVD would not play from flash memory. Not such a big deal, and the player otherwise worked as expected.
However, the reason for 1 star is that the battery only charged once and has entirely failed to take any charge since. The ONLY way it works is if it's plugged into a wall outlet or the cigarette lighter power source from a car. I really don't know if the battery is bad or if it's the charger or the circuitry. I just know it was a waste of my money.
