USB Films on TV

[Richie]

Hey,
Is their any device you can buy specifically for usb keys, for example, if I have a film on my USB Stick I won't have to burn it into a dvd to watch it, I can just watch it straight from the usb. I am aware you can buy dvd players that support usb sticks but most of them are expensive.

Any other possibilities to watch it directly from the usb?

You can use a PS3 or 360 if you have one?

Here is the same thing as Jameseh posted but you can get it a bit cheaper atm on this site. I've used it before and had no problems :)

Woah, I had no idea things like this existed. I should have bought one of these instead of that stupidly long HDMI cable!

cheers guys, also anyone know were I can get a 1tb usb for a cheapish price?

@recursion
I do have a xbox but that would mean dragging it downstairs everytime

Internal or External?

I got a reasonably cheap WD external from Currys some time last year, was around £70 (now its £60)

You'll have to check per device because I was looking up these myself a while back and I'm sure some don't read high GB sticks/HDD's.

Not trying to hijack thread but, will the Sumvision one play a 250GB External ?
