Hi there! I found this little thing today. I've seen this MS Asset label/sticker again here on your forums but never seen this tiny 7" display alone or with a complete setup. It does also mention on its casing i-Display.com which now redirects to a company named OutForm ( http://outform.com/portfolio-xbox360.html ). If anyone here knows and can help, I would like to learn something more about it and its value. So, see the pictures below and let me know. Thanks!
Well, you can connect it to pc with a mini usb to usb 2 cable it does have re-writable space named "nand". Not sure how much is the space but it comes with 5 videos already in it. Also has a usb 2.0 female input which doesn't seem to be for usb flash sticks, probably to communicate with the console, - + volume buttons, the button style menu on the front and a slot on the side for SD card input. Thanks for your reply!
It might be made for kiosks for dummy units, or the screens they hang above endcaps in stores. You rep who visits the store uploads new videos for the current games being pushed. Nintendo did the same thing with wii kiosks, it was just an mp4 player and a dummy unit.
Yup, our PSP kiosk played videos and came with a dummy PSP. Does the lead have a connector (e.g. HDMI) that connects to a console to show video from it? It's effectively a monitor that probably only plays videos uploaded via USB / from SD card. If that's the case, then it is indeed only really useful as a spare part for a kiosk or curio for Xbox collectors. If you look at their other stock products, it looks likely to be one of the open frame ad units with a custom bezel. You could always e-mail the company and ask for info. They might send you a manual or something.
Nope it doesn't have an hdmi, wish it had, it could be usefull for other uses as well Thanks for the advice, I will give it a try and email them!
Yeah its cool and easy to re-design. Although I am trying to copy the videos from the monitor to pc but it kinda gets in a loop. May be I need to format it.
