Seagate FreeAgent Theater+1080P HD Media Player STCEA201-RK Reviews
| 109 of 109 people found the following review helpful  Very Good, Almost Perfect!, By Jimbo "A/V Maniac" (USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Seagate FreeAgent Theater+1080P HD Media Player STCEA201-RK (Electronics) I purchased this unit to replace the previous version (Seagate FreeAgent Theater HD Media Player (STCEA101-RK)) that didn't play MKV (high definition) video files.CONSIDERATIONS 1. The previous version only displayed 6 items on the screen and it was somewhat difficult to find things with a large number of files. I have a 1.5 TB external drive to hold my movies. Both versions allow me to keep multiple files within a folder, which is handy for a TV series. This newer model displays a whole lot more on the screen--every file on the hard drive--10 at a time. You will need to learn to use the settings available from the Menu button on the remote to view folders and files according to your taste. I have over 300 files on the drive and most of them are TV series, so the interface is somewhat of a challenge if you don't use the Menu button. The unit plays one file after another, so a series with 10 episodes will play all 10 episodes in the order of their alpha-numeric...

I originally bought the unit so that I could rip my kids' movies onto a USB drive and break the cycle of turning all of their DVDs into scratched-up $20 coasters. The user interface on this unit was simple enough that my illeterate 4 year old son was able to easily power it up and navigate to any DVD without issues. You have to manually download the DVD cover images, but that's easy and everything works well with any type of file I could put onto my USB drive. YOu just navigate to the image of the DVD and hit play and then it looks just like you put a DVD in your regular player - you have full access to all of the menus, subtitles, etc...The good: - Plays just about any file type from an attached drive - DVDs are easy enough for a 4 yr old to to play, and you can preserve the menu & subtitle functionality. (Huge advantage over the WD)...
