DVD player that can play MKV/MP4 from external USB
Hi there
I'm looking for a conventional DVD player that can play MKV / MP4 videos from an external USB device. Quality should be 1080p so I suppose a Blu Ray player would suffice.
When reading the specs a lot say they have a USB port but I can never find what exactly the USB port will play -- I don't want it just for looking at photos (jpegs). I also don't want just an XVID / DIVX standard - I would like true 1080p via HDMI from the USB device. (I would love just to plug in an external USB HDD and play the movies).
Any suggestions here --- I don't need an INTERNAL HDD on the device so that should make it cheaper too. I'm not bothered about region either and PAL/NTSC is also an irrelevance for modern TV's too. The only thing if I buy a USA model is that I'd need it to work on European 220V AC.
Cheers
