- Can Most of the Reviews be Correct ?Well, before I purchased the Frame, I read as many reviews as I could. Still, I took a chance. I wanted to use it for both Videos and Photographs. Now, most of the Reviewers are on the money on this one. It depends on how you're going to use the Frame and if you're lucky enough to have the correct Video format on your camera/recording device. PHOTOGRAPHS: 1. Does a great job of Displaying, Fading, Zooming, Pausing, and allowing control of your "Stills". 2. The Display Quality is Excellent. VIDEOS: Here's the rub, as follows: 1. Some AVI and some MOV will play. Mostly those taken with a digital camera will work, but not always. I tried some from a top Olympus camera, and they played out of sync with the audio and video. 2. If you perform any Editing on your Videos, they usually will not play. 3. If you converted from one Format to another, such as WMV to MOV or AVI, they will not play. 4. I tried two Webcams, and those videos, in correct format or converted, would not play. 5. Kodak Support told me that unedited MOV and AVI MPEG4 and MJPEG taken with a Digital Camera would play, if used with Audio G.711. However, this was NOT always the case. Audio Only: 1. I did not try any Audio only insertions. CONCLUSION: 5 Stars for Photographs and 1 Star for Videos = 3 Stars Overall. Rating: - good valueI thought it was a great buy for the money, just wish it would have come with a little bit of memory. Rating: - Close but not quiteI bought this particular frame because of price and other reviews. While I am not totally disliking the frame I am a little disappointed with some of the features. There is an option to turn the frame off at night and then back on in the morning. It turns off and on fine but will not start showing pictures again without intervention. Managing pictures and music on the frame is PAINFULLY slow. The screen is great, clear and sharp though. Rating: - Kodak digital photo framePrompt service,product works & appears as advertised. I had it mailed to my son as a gift - have not seen it myself. Rating: - Do not buy this productI have had a terrible experience with the 10 inch wireless frame. After trying two different frames (bought one, shipped it back because it didn't work, they sent a replacement), I have come to the conclusion that this is just an extremely poorly designed product. The wireless feature works maybe 5% of the time (which is great when it works) and the frame is soooooo slow to respond. It takes up to a minute for it to respond after pressing a button. I really wanted to keep this frame - I have like 200 albums on Kodak Gallery that I wanted to access through the frame; but after two totally defective worthless frames, I gave up. Do not buy this frame!
