Apple has enjoyed an undeniable stranglehold over the $100+ portable
media player market for years now—it's pretty much been iPods and also-
rans. The budget realm, however, has never been Apple's strong suit,
and SanDisk and other manufacturers make players that outperform the
iPod Nano and iPod shuffle. The Sansa Fuze+, an update to 2008's Sansa
Fuze ($130), comes in 4GB ($79), 8GB ($89), and 16GB ($119) flavors.
One of the Fuze +'s key features: video playback.

Design
Measuring 3.1 by 1.9 by 0.3-inches (HWD), no one is going to mistake
the shiny, black plastic Fuze+ for an iPod Nano, new or old. A 2.4-
inch, 320-by-240-pixel screen occupies the upperportion of the front
panel; below it you'll find the touch-sensitive control pad consisting
of a backward arrow, a Play/Pause button, and a four-way, cross-shaped
controller, all painted on to the surface in silver to guide your
fingers to the right spot. The Power button resides on the upper
panel, Volume controls and a microSDHC slot on the left, a mini USB
jack on the right, and the 3.5mm headphone jack is on the bottom
panel. Some slightly-better-than-average earbuds—they offer some low-
end response and fit securely, at least—and a USB computer sync cable
are included with the player.

Consumer-friendly “Film Strip” GUI
The player’s unique GUI operates like a film strip, enabling intuitive
screen navigation that creates a more natural, crisp and satisfying
user experience. Left to right finger sweeps select functions such as
Music, Video, Podcasts, FM Radio and Photos, while up and down sweeps
or double taps on the touch-pad let users explore and select
individual categories and files.

Easy Compatibility
The Sansa Fuze+ portable media player’s broad audio and video CODEC
pack ensures easy compatibility with most major media formats.
Audio: MP3, WMA, WAV, AAC/M4A (DRM-free iTunes songs), FLAC, Ogg
Vorbis, Audible, Secure WMA, Podcasts
Video: H.264, MPEG-4, WMV, Flip Video*
Photos: JPEG, BMP, TIFF*, GIF*, PNG*
The Sansa Fuze+ portable media player is compatible with Windows, Mac
OS and Linux operating systems. The media player is also preconfigured
for seamless synchronization with Rhapsody, eMusic and Napster. But it
doesn’t support DVD and all of video formats. I search this question
on Google and I find http://www.nidesoft.com/dvd-to-sansa-converter.html(Nidesoft
DVD to Sansa Converter) which is the first and best DVD to Sandisk
Sansa ripper software which could convert DVD to Sansa video and audio
formats, such as MP4, AVI, and MP3 and support all the Sandisk player
series. Meanwhile, http://www.nidesof.com/video-converter.html(Nidesoft
Video Converter) could help you convert all video or audio files to
many other formats which your Sansa supports. Both software are
assistant for Sansa users.
Below is the simple user process of Nideosft DVD to Sansa Converter.
The first, you need download this software and install it.
Step 1: Insert the DVD disc into the DVD Drive.
Click the Open DVD button, browse your computer, and find the DVD
folder of the movie. (It is not only load DVD disc, but also could
open a disk backup’s directory.)

Step 2: Click the "profile" button and select the format for your
player.
Step 3: Click the "convert" button. Please wait before the conversion
succeeds!

Additional Features
The Sansa Fuze+ media player’s rechargeable battery lasts up to 24
hours of audio playback or up to five hours of video playback2. For
enhanced versatility, the device also includes a recordable FM radio,
gapless playback and a microphone for audio capture.

Compare with New iPod Nano
The Nano is so versatile that you'll never want to set it down. Music
is at the forefront, utilizing iTunes provides thousands of songs
available and which are fully syncable with your iPod Nano.
It allows you to store thousands of your best photo moments so you can
share your snapshots wherever you may go. Use the click wheel to
scroll through photo thumbnails the same way you scroll through your
music titles. See photos full screen with a click of a button. You can
even view picture slideshows, complete with music. New features allow
you to bring your photos alive with a slideshow presentation,
incorporating music and transitions on your TV using optional iPod
Accessories. Plus, with the 65% brighter screen, pictures will look
vibrant and alive, like the music you enjoy. Watching videos will be
very enjoyable with the two-inch screen and excellent 320-by-240
resolution, at 204 pixels per inch.
It combines two nice element including: Cover Flow, which allows you
to visually navigate through your album collection; Split screen for
visual content previews, which shows album covers for a selected song
and a new now playing screen.
Additional iPod Nano features let you customize menus, check how much
room you have left, change your language, change how your Nano sounds,
and more, all from the easy-to-use menus. And, lastly, it is loaded
with extras. Everything from calendars, contacts, and the World Clock
appear in the Extras menu, along with a few more useful items.

Conclusion
For those searching for a less expensive or more feature-packed
alternative to the Apple iPod Nano, reports say that the SanDisk Sansa
Fuze delivers on both scores. The Nano is certainly a better performer
than the Fuze when it comes to video quality, and that's even ignoring
the fact that video files (and photo files) need to be converted using
included software before viewing on the Fuse. On all other scores,
however, the Fuze holds its own and sometimes even excels. Audio
quality is excellent -- so much so that better-quality headphones are
a worthwhile investment. Battery life is good. While all reviewers
still rate the iPod Nano as a superior MP3 player, they also say that
the Fuze's value and performance is hard to ignore.
