Does the usb port play mp4/avi files

You kind of answered your own question...it's a port not a player. If you're asking if you can plug a player into the port and it work, well I haven't tried either. So I am sorry---but I sure love this tv, and has gone with me everywhere. I will purchase again because of the durability, the weight, the picture, and easy to use even camping. I can plug into my SUV and have movies or TV in a flash. I use 2 dollar rabbit ears, and get several channels. Can hook up to cable, and great for a kitchen TV. Sorry I wasn't any help on your question, but again you answered it yourself. Read the stats on the description, and it will tell you what's compatible.

I don't know. The manual only lists mp3. It displays .jpeg if that is anything useful to you.

No the USB is mostly for power and detecting computer. The video feed is not sent through it.

It is called an MP4 player,but I never could get it to play MP4 files. In fact I had so many issues with this device that it went into the trash. I hope you have better luck.

The manual says it only supports playback of pictures from USB devices, though it lists the supported file types as JPG, DIVX, and MP3. I have never tried playing anything from a USB drive on this device, and don't know if firmware updates might have changed what is described in the manual.

Simple answer: No. The unit does not have 1) hard disk reading software/hardware (those are complex and built into computer operating systems) nor, 2) a movie decoder built into it. It will play a few audio formats (MP3, AAC, M4A), however, from thumb drives, but it does NOT play ANY VIDEO from sources connected to its USB ports.

Yes,it support usb HDD, we have tried the 2TB ones, it can play videos from HDD without problem.

USB flash yes, I haven't tried all file types but definitely mp4 and avi. Not sure what you mean by PC input. It will take an HDMI output from a PC. Most newer computers have HDMI outputs.

I'm pretty certain it does. I used to plug an external hard drive into it and play movies from there but I don't really remember what types of files they were. It should say in the manual somewhere though, and usually those manuals are available online for free.

YES IT DOES HAVE USB PORT! They must have upgraded this projector, because I just received mine (I ordered it Oct 17, 2013) and it DOES have a usb connector for a flash drive. Located directly under the HDMI plugin. And I've played videos from the flashdrive.

Christina, yes,it plays avi filed & mp3 but you might have some probs with mpeg files.I had some videos that I downloaded from Morpheus & tried to sync them to it & wasn't able to ): good luck

I've tried a few different video file formats, including some MP4, and it's played them fine from a USB thumb drive. Since the screen itself isn't HD, I haven't tried any HD files in there, but I can verify that up to DVD quality resolution it plays media files just fine.

It works fine. I just hooked up a USB hard drive to my Acer Chromebook and it can navigate all the files and folders. I played an MP4 video file and an MP3 video file which both opened in the Media Player app. I've read it will play anything that Flash / Chrome will play. I don't think it will play offline avi's but I'm not sure.

Video playback is a bit hit and miss. Some play, some freeze the machine. I am trying to get the spec for compatible formats for .avi and .mp4 from Coby and waiting for a reply. The standard mini-USB plug cable allows you to manage and transfer files between the frame and a computer. The cards in the DP-102 will show as external drives on the PC.

Yes. It's completely portable and has served me well for a year so far without an issue. Plays only AVI file through either a jump drive or SD card. No mp4. Like advertised but it's no big deal.

I'm not totally sure since I only purchased it to watch movies. However it does say that you can play music,movies,and view pictures downloaded onto USB and SD cards. Hope this was helpful.
