Re: Pioneer DV 400

What USB sticks are you using. I've got a kingston and integral usb sticks and they both work.

Have you tried pressing the button on the front of the machine? to switch it to USB?

It seems as if it might be the player at fault, is it easy for you to take it back to the shop and get it looked at?

What size are the usb sticks and do they have any software on them?

Can't see it being the stick. I have used 3 diferent types on my DV600 with no problems. I also have a 20Gb fat 32 partition on my 320gb external hard drive and that works a treat. Swap the player, it must be at fault.
