Yes, beautifully. I encoded all of my CDs in this format, and am now playing them back, effortlessly, via the HAPZES. Only problem, there is no upgrade for my Apple computer Yosemite operating system.

No , will play any music ,even from a drag and drop . Don't know the max , but I 've found the larger the drive , the more time it takes to go thru the files

Hmmm. Podcasts are not ONLY video files... This player can indeed play audio Podcasts.

The player will play WAV files, however, it most likely will not play the newer WMA lossless files. Note that WAV files are already "lossless" unlike the MP3 format.

It is able to read play most any video, image or music file directly from a windows shared directly, including those NTFS drives. Is also DLNA compatible. Love mine.

Not sure about ape files but definitely flac and apple lossless. Other then dsd files (this can't play) not sure why you would want any other file

I downloaded my I tunes files to my Fiio's sd cards AIFF lossless via usb cable. The player works wih these files. Any further questions can be answered from the Fiio website.

The HP-P1 is designed for use primarily with an Iphone, Ipod or iPad and has a 32 bit DAC. I find it to work extremely well with Apple lossless but I did not try any hi-res files. Sorry I could not be of more assistance! JM

Im sure there are other apps out there but I play my files from my NAS using XBMC. The only ones I have problem with are 1080p 3D movies and I think thats more of the A100 itself and not so much XBMC.

I just tried to upload my library, and none of my wma files (lossy or lossless) are recognized, only mp3.

I hate mp4 format...I agree completely; that's the one thing that has kept me from buying any Apple device...I don't want everything in my audio library converted and not be able to play it on other systems. This is proprietary warfare and I'm not bowing down to Apple...

With the right auxiliary jack, any device can be really. USB, not sure. It has ipod controller, which just accesses the files. I would see the formats it can read, via usb, mp3, mp4, etc.

The best answer I have is to make sure the audio files are in the proper format for your storage card. If they arr make sure they actually play on th computer, if thry do not play on the computer obviously they wont play on the device. Otherwise most likely the storage card isnt a match.

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.
