Toshiba SD-590E DVD Player
TrustedReviews
It allows you to liberate digital content trapped on your PC without the hassle of burning them onto CD or DVD first – it’s a simple plug and play procedure. The deck supports MP3 DivX hi-res JPEG and m4a but not DivX HD WMV or WMA. We’re particularly pleased by how quickly it recognises the USB flash drive and loads up content. Elsewhere you’ll find a very familiar-looking feature list which includes Dolby Digital and DTS bitstream output 720p 1080i and 1080p upscaling via the HDMI output together with Toshiba stalwarts like Regza Link and the Enhanced Audio Mode (EAM) which adds a ‘3D’ virtual surround effect when listening through two speakers. The Enhanced Picture Mode (EPM) lets you alter elements of the picture but don’t expect enthusiast levels of tweaking – you get brightness and contrast settings and that’s it.

Adapter plays HD files off of any hard drive
CrunchGear
It’s priced at $69 which seems a bit steep mostly because I’m going to assume that the on-screen interface is average (at best). The idea is still intriguing though especially if you have a bunch of media files spread out over multiple storage mediums. Video is output at 1080i and the adapter can read MPEG AVI MP4 VB and DiVX files so codec support looks pretty robust. You also get a remote control and AV cables and the adapter doubles as a USB external connection for hooking your drive up to your computer.
