4K Media Player with Remote Control, Digital MP4 Player for 8TB HDD/USB Drive/TF Card/H.265 MP4 PPT MKV AVI Support HDMI/AV/Optical Out and USB Mouse/Keyboard-HDMI up to 7.1 Surround Sound (Black)

Overall, this player is a great player. Pros: Very Stable Operation. Not one frozen video or system lockup, So Far. Very intuitive-simple, bare bones interface. Minimal amount of Menus and Sub Menus. Excellent Fast Forward/Rewind Interface. Great Video and Sound Quality. Soft Blue On/Off light that won't blind you. Best Remote I used in terms of range and spread - very forgiving. Best Minimal Heat Signature, So Far. Best Player I have used, So Far. Plays everything I have tried, including h265 with ease. Cons: A Little more expensive than the competition. As with most it has a poor manual. The ONLY annoying flaw I have found: IMPORTANT It appears that the MyPin remote on/off button only powers off the Player, it does not turn off power (internally disconnect) to the drive you are using, Another reviewer on Amazon has pointed this out. So, before you unplug your drive to add media... Turn off the power to the unit its self.... Then unplug your drive and add your media. In my experience, if you don't do this, you may get a drive error message from your PC and your files may not write/copy properly. This mainly happens with SS Drives. It doesn't seem to bother my 4 gig Desktop Seagate Drives. Technically, I don't understand what the problem is but MyPin should address the issue what ever it is.

I bought this to be able to easily work with my digital video collection on a large portable HDD most media players don't like large storage devices but this one had no problem with mine. The user interface is easy to use and intuitive, the picture quality is really good. My only initial criticism was i couldn't select a subtitle file to play with my videos, even if the file was in the directory with the video the player wouldn't give me the option to use it. I finally figured it out though (I wish this was in their product documentation) to get your player to use your srt files the video and CC file MUST have the EXACT same name. I changed that one thing and WHAMO suddenly I could use them. It would be nice if the player would allow you to select a specific CC file manually from within the player but at least for now this works REALLY well.

I have 5TB hard drives containing MP4 formatted home videos. There are over 500 directories and 1000 video files on the hard drive. I normally play the videos from a Windows or Chromebook laptop connected to a TV. I had to provide a Chromebook to family members to play the videos on their TV but it is rather difficult for them since they are non-technical users. I started researching other options and found that most media players and Blu-Ray players can handle a small number of files but cannot handle large drives, a large number of files, or a variety of video formats. This media player gives you the ability to easily play a large number of various video files from large hard drives without a laptop. By simply connecting the player to the TV and connecting the hard drive to the player, I was able to play almost all the video files. Using the interface, it takes a few seconds to open the root directory since it contains over 500 sub-directories but that is not unreasonable. All the directories appear and it is easy to use the remote to navigate to any directory and subsequent sub-directories. As a few reviewers have mentioned, using the File Manager instead of the Video application gives you the ability to back out to the previous directory at all levels. The remote works well enough for controlling the playback of each video. I don’t have a problem with FF, REW, etc. The MP4 video files range in size from 2GB to 20GB. All files up to 15GB play great but I have a problem playing video files larger than 15GB. The video doesn’t play after approximately two and a half hours (02:28). The documentation indicates the player should play files this large. Mypin support was initially responsive but did not provide a solution for the problem. I experienced one other problem. After disconnecting my hard drive from the media player and reconnecting it to my Windows 10 laptop, the following Windows error message appears: ‘There is a problem with this drive. Scan the drive now and fix it’. Whether I choose to ‘continue without scanning’ or ‘Scan the drive now and fix it’, all the files on the drive were available and playable. This message has been more of a nuisance rather than the drive actually being corrupted and requiring a re-format. The media player created three directories on the hard drive – Android, BUDA, and LOST.DIR. I assume since Windows didn’t create these directories it may be flagging that there is a problem with the drive. When I reported the problem to Mypin support they responded that it is a known bug but there wasn’t a solution (as of DEC 2022). They also responded that it should not damage the hard drive or USB flash drive. Summary: This media player is a great option for playing videos from large external hard drives. You can play the videos on any TV at home or any other location without worrying about using a laptop. It is especially useful for non-technical users. My extended family members love it. I really wanted to rate it with five stars but dropped to four stars because of the two problems I described. Overall, it is a great product.

TLDR add a 128GB micro sd card or usb flash drive key chain for under $20 fill up with all your favorite titles, and you can take all your favorite videos, music, audio books and play it via hdmi anywhere on the planet you have power. it's a 100+ DVD disc/VHS player that fits in your back pocket for $70 or less all in no need for internet, subscriptions, accounts and doesnt stalk you.... $50 plugged it in, plugged in usb drive, plays back everything pretty much flawless, a child could use and the senior crowd can too without any internet stalking, set ups, accounts, updates, tinkering. For the most part it just works plug & play. Was an OG Xbox hacker running XBMC almost 20 years ago, used the entire wdtv line, dabbled with the pis and I tend to always have an old notebook around which is easy enough to connect via hdmi so I skipped a few generations of streamers. and I have zero desire for streaming but for a stand alone box this is it. 5 stars for the price, size, and doing what it's supposed to do. If I could make changes. Power on would check sd card and boot from that. So those who like a little more customization or updates could just set up a microsd card pop it in and enjoy. If no sd card then it just boots like it normally does. An internet search for "mypin firmware" brings up a page easy enough with a file from 2020 around 500mb. Played around with it before updating worked fine before and after. Verision 16 of kodi think their on 19 by now. Didnt spend to much time on it, wish it was a little easier to update and add apps, I'm sure I could get into it but not worth the time these days just want it to work and it did. Was easy enough to just add to root of usb drive, but really didnt give any indication it was doing anything, I'm familiar to just let it be for a while, checked the status and it did change. But there was no reason to update. Maybe a system setting to load update file but 99% of people wont bother. Turned on clicking video/music didnt show any files no biggy clicked app and kodi, vlc, and an office app popped up. Thought I'd try vlc it saw files but no sound thought oh boy, clicked app again selected kodi and it played back everything fine. I use a projector. Theres options to have it automatically start playing that are easy enough. Some might complain about some of the apps not working but it 3 button pushes its playing fine, scrolls thru titles fast, app and back button tend to get a user where the need so I'd be comfotable gifting to older relatives or kids. Small footprint microsd cards and usb drives are less than 20 bucks, load em up, store away and go. The Blue Laser Beam is like the luxor in vegas and i'll never understand why pretty much all electronics need to light up a room when powered off but that's what black nail polish is for, covered up the light and other spots it leaks and remote still works. Doesn't come with hdmi or batteries, but I have plenty I use a small 1ft one for this. It came with an extension for ir remote, some old school red and yellow cables and a basic remote. Would and will buy again. Great travel companion, for hotels, projectors, super portable, user froendly, and if it gets lost or stolen no biggy it so cheap. Would love physical buttons on these type of products nothing fancy but redundency for a lost or broke remote, a power button and a way to scroll or select. Maybe another micro sd card slot, it has 2 usb slots, and a file manager so it could double dose as a micro sdcard /usb drive cloner All 1%er requests but a few tweaks could make this a killer product. Old wdtv is a good comparison expcept this box scrolls thru titles a lot faster. I havent tried with my big drives, I like to use those for serious back up, keep a few usb drives / sd cards loaded and you can carry hundreds of movies/ thousands of albums ready to plug and play anywhere you go TLDR add a 128GB micro sd card or usb flash drive key chain for under $20 fill up with all your favorite titles, and you can take all your favorite videos, music, audio books and play it via hdmi anywhere on the planet you have power. it's a 100+ DVD disc/VHS player that fits in your back pocket for $70 or less all in no need for internet, subscriptions, accounts and doesnt stalk you....

This is getting frustrating. There appears to be no reasonably well written photo viewer out there. Apart from a very limited UI, the main problem with this one is that it simply stops working. The first day, I tested it out, it eventually and grudgingly started to go through the slideshow. The next day, it would not run the slideshow. The software does not have a Play/Pause button. The manual devotes about 1 line to how this is meant to work, but it basically says the slideshow will start automatically after you select the first slide. Yesterday, it did. Today it does not. Same everything as before. A slideshow is a simple thing: Select photos, show first one, sleep, show next one. Yet it seems to beyond the abilities or willingness of any of these providers. A decent programmer could whip one of these up in a matter of days. In fact, most high school programming students could do a better job. I do not want to use a Linux box due to the incessant nonsense unresolved from the 1980s about mounting and unmounting USBs (they claimed to have solved it, but not really), or the incessant updates, or pointless notifications or... You get the picture. I want a simple box that I can plug my USB into and see a slideshow. Preferably with some sensible options about how the photos are selected. This software flattens the directories to one level. So now I have 20 directories called Jan, another 20 called Feb, another 20 called Mar.... Who on earth thought that was a good idea? There is no way to tell which one was in the previous higher folder that indicated which year it belonged to. And besides, who says I only want it to display one folder at a time. There is no option that I have found to tell it to just play everything on the USB. Media players should have a decent photo viewer. This does not. Sadly, that appears true of many of them.

Great way to play YouTube videos, home movies and produced movies if you can get a digitized version. Produces a great quality video on your TV.

I've owned several similar MP4 players. I generally understand and accept certain limitations. I bought this one because it was relatively highly rated. The good: I really like having a dual USB drive. I want to plug in multiple drives at once and like having this option. The ads said it would support and HDD up to 8TB, which is something my other players could not do. I also found it very easy to set up the remote to work with my TV, and very much liked that I could program the buttons on the remote very easily. The bad: I was disappointed that the remote could only advance or go back in 30 second increments. It's not a huge deal, but I'd like this shorter or to customize the length of the advance. Also, when playing a show and stopping, I could not return to the same point in the show easily (something I'd gotten used to doing with my other devices). While it could play some H265 compression shows (something older players will not do) it did have some issues with some of my other videos - not showing video at all (meaning it did not have the right CODEC). The Ugly: None of the issues I listed under my "bad" section were a big deal. I generally liked the device - IF IT HAD WORKED PROPERLY. The deal breaker for me was that fact that my hard drives with my videos would be recognized by this player at all. When I plugged them in, the drive would spin up. Sometimes I get some sort of "please wait" message, but in the end it would not mount the drive and let me see, let alone play, any of my videos. I tried various size drives (4TB, 2TB, 1TB) as well as exFAT and NTFS file allocation. I also tried putting files in less subfolders, or more. None of that seemed to make a difference. I emailed support. After getting an initial email asking what model I had purchased (information I included in my initial email) and responding, I never heard back again. Given the higher ratings of this device, I'm guessing mine was just defective. I did manage to mount a flash drive that was much smaller, and which used FAT32. This is how I tested the rest of it. But the fact that none of my drives loaded (even though they loaded fine on my two other MP4 players from different manufacturers) meant this player was useless. I'm in the process of making a return and ordering a different player from a different company.

I was looking for a unit my elderly father could use to play MP4 movies from a hard drive. I tried several other brands that did not do the job. I ordered the MyPin 4K player based on other positive Amazon reviews. I connected the unit and turned on the power. The user interface was beautiful. The remote control however, was not working. I was able to perform some of the functions with a wireless mouse. The movies looked great on this player. I did not want to return the unit. I contacted MyPin customer service via email with little hope of getting a reply. I received an email from MyPin later that evening. Jaime suggested I could either return the unit to Amazon and get another or he could send me a replacement remote control. I asked for a new remote. The next day Jaime sent an email saying a new remote control was on its way. In a couple of days I had the new remote. Everything now works correctly. I couldn't be happier with the MyPin 4K HD media player or the outstanding customer service. I highly recommend this player for anyone who wants to play media files from local storage.

Excelente reproductor, muy ligero y pequeño, fácil de usar y de buena calidad. Me hubiera gustado que tuviera reproducción rápida.
