Really basic video playback

Thought I'd link the manual here for reference http://www.medeawiz.com/assets/Sprite-DV-S1-Manual-4_00.pdf

Does it start the looping video when powered up, without intervention from the IR remote?
The size & menu looks like the Cyclone player but they power up in standby mode and need starting with the remote which is a bit of a bugbear 

As far as I can tell yes, it does autostart when powered up.

It also seems to autostart when the usb / SD card is inserted - basically it seems to be constantly looking for a file that starts 000 and will loop that immediately.

 

Only downside is the remote control, it feels cheep and the buttons aren't the most responsive but since everything else is amazing and the remote is barely used I think I'll give them a pass on that.

Pretty sure that the original cyclone can be set to auto play on start up, but it’s in a menu.

also, some cyclones seem less reliable on remembering functions.
