Thanks

Cheers

As long as you have an app which will read the format of your movies then you should be good to go.

If you have an app installed that can handle the file type that you are using then the answer is yes.

I use Goflex Satellite GoFlex Satellite Wireless | Seagate the app for it plays any file recognized by iTunes/iOS, for any other format I just use OPlayer HD.
