This is an outdated kit, no longer available.
After a lot of search, finally I’ve found a USB/SD video player kit.
This kit is priced a bit high at 480Rs(as of 09/2011), which seemed to be loot when I was buying this, but later it is realized how useful is this.
The kit consists of a mainboard, one interface board, one display board and one remote.
Interface board: This board consists of HT1628 IC which is a DVD LED Driver IC. The mainboard connects to this board with a ribbon cable and this board consists of IR sensor and display. Another ribbon cable connects this board with the interface board which has 6 keys and LEDs for the panel.
Main Board: The mainboard has two main ICs, one is Zoran ZR36988 DVD processor IC, and another is W9864G RAM. There is an LM1117-3.3 voltage regulator on board which provides 3.3V supply for all the internals. There are a few small ICs like video amplifier, FM receiver, etc.
The Zoran ZR36988 IC is a variant of the popular Zoran 36888 IC, which is a DivX certified media player IC. It supports playback of JPEG, MP3, WMA, and MPEG-1/2/4 files and the IC provides HDMI output, true 5.1channel output, etc extraordinary features.
Though in the board those features were not implemented and there is only stereo audio and video output enabled for TVs.
More information about the IC: http://zoran.com/spip.php?page=imprimer&id_article=54 ( Link now dead )
There is connector for both SD/MMC cards and USB port in the board. I’ve tested this board with my USB pendrive and MP4 and AVI video playback i good enough.
The IC is also used in modern DVDs so there would not be any problem in finding the IC if it damages. I guess that IC will cost around 250-300Rs.

hlo sir,
can i connect a car sub woofer with my home amp?
what is the diffrence between car woofers watt nd home woofers watt?? any big diffrence... IM CANFUSED \?
Arnab says
Yes, you can connect a car subwoofer to home amplifier.
Difference between car and home woofer > Car woofers are low power and less efficient compared to same size home woofer, but a car woofer is more sturdy compared to home one.
Jass says
thank you so much..Arnab Sir..
one more question..
i seen in the market one home that power is 500w .. that operate 4 12inch home speaker nd 2 car subwoofers.. that amp include one extra volume for car subwoofers.. what is the trick behind it..
Arnab says
Don't fall on their lies, 500W power is too much for audio, 100W RMS will start breaking glasses of your house, specially sub woofers.
10-15 watt is more enough to drive a 12" woofer, just think about it, 12W RMS means 1Amp average current all the time through the subwoofer coil !
I'd suggest you to learn about the relation of sound output and RMS power, and forget PMPO.
Jass says
hahaha.. thx sir... its too late reply.. but best advice for me.. its means i directly connect a car subwoofer to my home amp??? or connect any circuit with amp??? ..
thx 4 reply...
Arnab says
Yes, you can connect it to your existing amplifier, just make sure maximum RMS current through the subwoofer is always lower than it's max RMS rating.
Btw, cheap manufacturers often LIE !
Sorry for late reply, and have a good day 🙂
Jass says
thank u dear sir..
500w amp price in market 8500₹ .... its too high ..
again thx ... sir. .. for guided me. im satisfied ur advice.
