We've been quite happy with our Archos 5 Internet Tablet for playing videos that we have previously transcoded. We have the battery dock that allows us to hook up the device to a TV via composite or S-video connections. It's been great while traveling as we have been able to watch movies on various hotel TVs.
We have an HD TV at home, so we thought it would be nice to hook the Archos up to the TV via HDMI like many of our other components. We purchased this dock to compliment the battery dock that we already have, and to use for when we are at home. When we first hooked it up, the video quality via the HDMI cable was quite impressive. But, as soon as we went to play a video, the show-stopper sound quality really grabbed our attention. It was distorted and clipped. We tried all sorts of tricks like lowering the device volume levels in case it was simply over-clipping the inputs. We could not get acceptable sound via the HDMI connection no matter what we did. We know the TV and HDMI connections work as we have other devices hooked up that way. We also know that our Archos works as the videos we play via the battery dock sound great.
So sad. Such much potential. So much disappointment. :(

Archos 5 offers good-looking overall flexibility. Although it is inserted to a sizable bank account this but seems big enough to stand taller just like a notebook. This specific version is a good looker when it comes to equally challenging and software.
