Just tried this in the BDV-E700W player and got the USB DEVICE (FRONT) UNKNOWN error message; any fixes to this??

Had trouble mounting to certain hardware. I have no straight fix, but after mounting a few times to more powerful units (pc) it mounted on less powerful ones my phone etc.

You need to format it as a FAT32 drive. It comes pre-formatted with the NTFS file system--which can't be read by most Blu-ray players.

I haven't had any problems. It works great! It sound like the device it is being connected to is not working. Have you tried connecting to another device? If it doesn't connect then it has a defect.

http://www.opendrivers.com/modeldriver/panasonic_dmp-bd75-driver-download.html go here for the only STABLE firmware upgrade 1.19. DO NOT allow it to update the "latest" firmware 1.33. nothing but problems. (this is based on what i have read from researching to buy this player, which i would be willing to buy now that i found the old firmware - i do not own this yet) UPDATE: i have also read that when AFTER you update the firmware, it resets the output to composite (lowest resolution). so if you are doing firmware via: HDMI cable, it may "appear" to be dead or broken once updated. so trying having both cables hooked up and after the new version is installed and your screen turns black, switch your TV input to composite and see if you see something now, then go into your menu and switch your resolution setting back to 1080p. then change your TV input back to HDMI. (i had this problem before on my HDMI dvd player, i was using the composite cables to an old tube TV, and tried the 1080p setting. everything went black and couldn't see anything to change the setting back.)

I've had the same problem with UNIVERSAL BDs... found these comments, unplugged USB... works! :)

I have not used that drive, but I have used a Western Digital 3TB USB 3.0 drive with no problem at all. No problem playing any format video that I have come across with the player.

Thank you for this post. I have beat my head for hours trying to figure out how to get the player to show up as a drive. This worked for me.

Sorry Boyd, I immediately sent mine back after I saw how poor the usb cord fit into the player! I had to wiggle and apply side pressure to get the laptop to find the player. As soon as I let go, connection was lost..Also the HD screen was poor quality..I only can say that the pre loaded Chinese video files were poor viewing quality. I would think If I were sending examples with my product, I would make sure it was of the highest quality? But answer your question, I was going to use my laptop to transfer..

i didn't try it but it show as a normal disk once connected to USB, so potentially it should work, my advise check mediasonic forums. the device it self is solid.

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.

It has to be a compatible capture device. The key question is what is considered compatible? That I do not know as they refuse to release a compatibility list :( I have ran against the same issue with 1/2 my devices.

Sounds like Sam W J found yet another problem with this MP3 player. Both of mine failed and the USB was not disconnected. Also there was no way to tell if there was a 0 byte file on the player because the computer couldn't see the player.In the meantime I'm using my Creative Zen Nano Plus -- transfering old cassette tapes, Recording FM radio programs, as well as using it for all the features of the Sansa. It's menu is quite different but all in all it's a better player.

I personally returned mine after it froze ten minutes into playing around with the functions, and bought another player with the refund.If you haven't already, you should hold the reset button for ~10 seconds (as opposed to just pressing it) and see if that does anything, like commutergirl suggested.Also, maybe double-check to see that it was plugged in properly for charging? Sometimes USB ports can be weird.In any case, good luck! I hope it's just a temporary thing and that it works soon for you!

If you have it. Plug it into the rear USB port and try it. Most likely it won't be recognized by the system.

I'm testing it out right now, it was recognized after a reboot in emulationstation. The usb was just recognized after installing the driver from retropie_setup.sh. This is on RetroPie 2.4.2

Hi, are you using USB directly on the projector? If so, it should work fine. Cheers.

Can you confirm if you got a solution for your problem? I have the same situation, lost the usb receiver and I'm trying to look for a replacement as well. let me know how you figured it out.

I have this same issue with an earlier model (BDP-S350). For me the problem began when my blu-ray player automatically updated its firmware last spring. Even blu-ray disks that played fine earlier stopped playing, although many of the new disks that I've tried work fine. Sony appears to be oblivious to this issue not providing any meaningful customer support. There are several possible solutions posted on the SONY website and on various discussion forums for other models (e.g, turn off the Internet access, clear the USB jump drive memory, unplug the unit from the AC power for a minute or two). None of them worked in my case. I finally gave up and bought a new Panasonic player; out of principle I persisted in trying to 'fix' my Sony blu-ray player for quite a while and eventually decided to pay a few buck to buy my way out of the aggravation). Bye, bye Sony products, hello Panasonic (They also burned me years ago for discontinuing support [e.g., driver updates] for one of their expensive Vaio computers.).
