Playboy with Marlboro video ad or return player from Vogue magazine

In winter, the entire community of geeks was excited by the appearance in VOGUE magazine of a new type of advertising, made using Video-in-Print® technology. On the very first day of its appearance, the party was swept away, on the second day in some places the remains were found and also swept away. The circulation was limited and the magazine with advertising did not go to everyone. There were disputes that such advertising would no longer be, it is very expensive, this is a one-time action. But he came back !!! Legendary advertising with a legendary player.
This time we were pleased with the magazine PlayBoy! A limited part of the June issue of the magazine came out with a similar advertisement for Marlboro cigarettes. Finally, you can use not only the player, but also look at the magazine itself.



It is easy to identify a magazine with video ads, it has a corresponding yellow sticker on it.

According to reliable information, the limited edition of the magazine this time is more and will be distributed in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Personally, today I found a couple at a gas station BP and many in one of the supermarkets "The Seventh Continent", yesterday there was no July issue at the intersection, only the May one.

Open the magazine on page 26 with a beautiful Ferrari and see the treasured tab



When it is opened, as before, the video with advertising is played.



But, unlike the Vogov player, the Playboy player has not one, but two buttons! Clicking on them you can choose the video being played, now there are two of them in the advertisement.

On the back of the tab there is a perforation under the usb port of the player.



On it you can carefully cut a piece and connect the player to a computer to fill your content. To connect to a computer, just like last time, you need to press the top button 3 times and the computer will define the advertisement as a removable disk. On it in the video folder and you need to put content, instead of the standard.

Now open the player and look inside.



The player is built on the same platform as the Vogovsky.

The same processor Ingenic JZ4725B, the same amount of RAM. There are only two differences from the Vogov player - the presence of the second button and the amount of flash memory is less.





The new player is equipped with a 512 MB microcircuit (Samsung K9G4G08U0B), and in the first one was 1 GB (Samsung K9G8G08U0A). Therefore, in the new player space for videos only 300 MB.

But, I think, this will not be a problem when modifying the firmware and installing it on the Linux player.
These shamanism with the player, as well as how to make a full-fledged media player with a dandy emulator out of advertising was discussed and continues to be discussed in the VoGeeky Google group at groups.google.com/group/vogeeky
