Performance

Apex MP-2000 Portable Media Player

Reasonable and bright screen; simple, if clunky, interface; decent video capture quality at higher settings; includes voice and line-in audio recording; removable battery.

Mediocre audio quality while recording video, even at highest settings; no specs for exact video format requirements in manual; doesn't record copy-protected video; doesn't play DRM-protected WMA or WMV files; doesn't play QuickTime files; no remote...

The Apex offers a modest value on a personal media player/recorder, but expect to spend a lot of time and energy converting your video collection.

Excellent Deal For The Price

This is an amazing price for such a high capacity hard drive player that also plays video! For example a 1GB recertifyed iPod nano costs a little more then this product. I get comments constantly on the screen size and the video quality. The menues are...

NO ITUNES-DRAG AND DROP, Excellent Screen (get comments and questions about it all the time), the small little speaker which is low quality but sometimes very handy, the price for a 20GB hard drive player compaired to ipods and zens, the cables, video out

It sometimes takes a few trys to get it to boot, rarly a song will skip to another part of the song or an entirely diffrent song but I kinda like the effect it creats, the menues are wreatched, random only in a single folder, battery indicator is not...

Great for the price

As for people that talked about the screen door effect I noticed it but it did not bother me in the least. And if your watching a video and have the thing down in your lap or on a desk you wont notice anything. Well atleast I didnt. I went to Apex's...

Screen, speakers, All cables included, price, ease of use

It is a little annoying to navigate through your list of songs since you have to scroll through all of them. (I just created a bunch of folders that made things easier). Doesnt support some common video formats but that was easily fixed with a video...

works for me

should keep encoding less than 720x480 and 900 or less bit rate. out of 10 videos already encoded played 8 fine. the other two said unsupported. cant go wrong for the price.

plays xvid even though it does not state it

will not play over 720x480 or high bit rate. the reason for 4 out of 5 is high bit rate problem and has a screen door effect on lcd and no mpeg2

No Good

None

I got this for viewing movies. It requires compression to MP4 with MP3 or DIVX with MP3. I tried the latest Nero 7, Roxio 8 and DVDFab 3.1.4 and none would recode to the requirements this needed to play a non-encrypted DVD set of files. Total waste for me
