eo: Battery life playing movies
Start looking in your movie collection for all your movies with a length that do not exceed the 1 hour and 25 minutes mark because that's all you get from your battery having the BT OFF, WiFi OFF, Brightness around 50% and playing the movie from a SandDisk 2 GB Memory Stick. The video quality is great but you will need an extended battery if you want to have a wider repertoire. And even with an extended battery, movies like King Kong seem to me just a "mission impossible". If you have any doubt just check the below screen shot where you can see exactly where the 1:25 mark is locate in King Kong movie.

Hello,

I have a question on the playing movies :
Your movie by a reader on EO's USB?
It's have an additional consumption !!!
Can you remake the movie playing test with a film directly on the Hard Disk ?
Thanks,

Yes boil you are not using your HDD ;)You are not going to See more than 1.5 hours on this baby no matter what you do.
ReplyDeleteOne of the first generation problems...:)
ReplyDeleteIf it were on HDD, it would take even more power so it wouldn't be even 1.20 hours. SD cards consume almost no power.
ReplyDeleteWOW their website clearly says 3 hours of battery life. Maybe we should start a petition!!
