Whether DVD player USB port will supply necessary power to Pocket HDDs?
I tried transcend 320gb Pocket HDD with philiphs DVD player.
But it is not working due to insufficient power.
It may work with external power adapter.

DVD Player with USB Input + external hard drive

It will work, but the HDD need to have a single partition and it should be FAT 32 format. Then you can play it. Assuming Pocket HDD means 2.5" USB powered external HDD
