16Gb Touch Screen Mp3 Mp4 Camera DV RMVB RM Player Chinese Manufactured Player?s name : Media Player Version : 1018_090212_dev_tp_CM_8x Total memory : 16 GB The player will not play AVI or other video files. It did, however, play the example AVI file that was pre-loaded on the player. I worked for hours with different video file converters to match the resolution, audio format and other parameters of this ?example file?. The results were always the same when trying to play about 20 different converted video files: ?File Format Error?. Finally, I moved the included ?example? AVI file to my XP Pro desktop and immediately moved it back to the player. When I tried to play this unaltered AVI ''example file'' it reported the message ?File Format Error?. I could be wrong, but I believe the player just needs a firmware upgrade which appears not to be available. I hope this serves to alert those looking for a good deal to consider the bonuses that I got with my bargain: No Manual or instructions No Warranty No Support No firmware upgrade links provided Any insight to a solution would be appreciated.

    Those who have replied with a solution so far have not read the original post paying particular attention to the details. Many conversion programs were tested, creating video files of the proper resolution. To make a long story short, the player would corrupt easily and had to be reformatted and loaded with 3 Gig of MP3s again and again (30 minutes each time). It finally died after about two weeks of ownership. As others have found, this player will not play AVI files transferred from an NTFS or Fat32 file system (Windows).

I have a unit running the same firmware rebranded as Polaroid. The software I use, with some success, can be downloaded from their support site...

I am the victim of the same piece of garbage. Worst than that, I paid more and it stuck permanently at the "Welcome @ loading" screen the first night I received it.

Other than the demo avi, it did play one video my son left at the desktop. It probably was converted for his ipod touch. It virtually plays nothing else.

On loading it up with a 5G folder, trying to find a video converter that would work, it just stuck at loading at the next power up.

I haven't even noted its original FW version!

I guess it must be one of those with doctored flash size, you loaded it up, it corrupted and the FW might have gone.

As it does not come with any instructions, I don't know how to wake it up.

It no longer comes up a storage device when connected to the PC. Reset does not help but I found it showed at least 2 different USB IDs depending on which button I held during that reset, one is close to, but not exactly, what adfupdate is looking for.

Sometimes it also makes a snapping sound when the usb cable is plugged in. It sounds like it is in some form of camera mode.

The bottom line is it cannot get through the loading screen and won't mount as a drive any more for us to look inside.

I think we have to reload the firmware.

Have anybody been able to fix this brick and tell us how?

Help!

    Any help in resurrecting this brick will be appreciated.

  • Anonymous Jul 22, 2010

    More info for my unit.

    As suspected, there is only a single SamSung K9GAG08U0M PCB0 flash inside. Hence it is 16G bit not 16G Byte. It is just doctored to show 16GB. No wonder it hanged after filling it up with 5GB.

    The MCU is ATJ2237T. There are some FW's for this MCU on the web however I don't know which one would fit this player.

    There is no harm trying if yours is a brick like mine. Update the thread if you find the right one.

    Thanks
