I love their consistency. First it was "Yepp! Is the portable digital music player", then it went to "Yepp! Is the portable mp3 player" just for the last one go back to "Yepp! Is the portable mp3 player" xD Seriously, ipods are one thing and they were awesome for their times, but kids this days with iphones, media streaming and aalways-online are clueless on what we had to struggle if we hadn't have like rich parents who could buy us apple player or something with reputable brand (yes, we can shit on Sony or SE now, rightfully so, but they were doing good stuff back then) and instead we got from them or grandparents "mp3 player" or later mp4 for Christmas that were complete bootleg random madeups. Jezus, I remember having mp4 player I begged my parents to buy me one. 1 big (for their times) screen and 2 buttons on each side. In package there was some vague instruction in a form of microscopic booklet with font size like 1, minicd with obligatory bloatware (seriously, how is that possible no single piece of this software was good?), headphones that were never working properly, the connector was constantly disconnecting one earplug, even right after taking them out of the box and usb cable, miniusb but that's just standard for that times. And just like this yepp, uploading there anything was a fucking torture. This software was just fighting you with all its might- weird popups, errors, "media disconnected", hidden confirmation etc. And on top of that- let's say you somehow uploaded there your content, you charged built-in battery (yep, no AA/AAAs anymore, IT'S THE FUTURE NOW OLD MAN!)... this thing was draining power at random. You COULD have pleasant day and listen to music almost all day long OR it could die on you like half an hour after charging it to 100% and going out. I remember the buttons were in a form of "push down until the tiny dome makes contact to the pin" and you had to push it really hard for them to work. And guess what- the power button... died like not even full year after buying it, the only was to power it on by kind-of shot circuiting it to fife by connecting it to working PC like you wanted to upload something. It was complete garbage and just imagine- you're like 10-13 years this happens, you know why this happens and just go to dad or grandma and tell them that they bought piece or garbage and it's dead already. Sheeeesh....

We arent mad at Apple for proprietary at the beginning of the Iproducts, we are mad that they kept doing it when everyone else standardized. Then they take away your home button and sold it back to you, then they took your wires and sold them back to you.

I think it's the disconnect between assuming that the CD will be automatically installing the drivers for the device it's sold with. But the CD is just installing the generic software suite with a folder of drivers for all relevant devices, which are not installed until that very screen asks for where they are located. Also if he connected to the internet it probably would have done that automatically.

@@AfferbeckBeats It really doesn't help that many of the installers don't just install the fitting driver. The whole "manually search for the driver" part is basically the worst installation design for a mainstream consumer device. Better installers will ask to plug in the device at some point during the installation, so that the installer can identify them and install the drivers. Or they just throw all drivers on the disc and install the needed one once the device is plugged in. Think about how graphics cards drivers do it. You install the driver package, it checks which card you have, and installs the driver needed. And hardware identifiers aren't new.

kids today will never understand the struggle to spend an entire weekend getting your new piece of tech to work

My theory on the ambiguous packaging state of the *yepp!* is that the nugg was removed from the box and placed in a Dixons (or similar non UK Chain) display cabinet, where it lived undisturbed for between 6 and 36 months, before being reboxed when the store closed, and picked up for £5 by one of the now jobless team members. Edit: I'm referring to the first nugg, didn't realise there were many yepps. My source for the above is that i worked at Dixons from 1998 to 2005, and was one of the few who didn’t get an ipod. I instead got a Creative Zen which lasted for over a decade, after sitting in a display case for years until the branch i worked at closed, and the display nugs were sold off to us staff for less than the cost of a beer in London.

Good video but I would recommend reading up on how USB, PnP, and driver installation works on Windows XP. Several of your devices were only like a step or two away from working before you gave up.

Only once or twice did the “Your hardware is ready to use” pop up come up, meaning of all of his attempts, only a few of them were able to get drivers installed, and even then only one of them communicated to the software.

OH MY GOSH I OWN THAT ORBULAR LOOKIN NUGG AT THE END It's actually just a really strange shuffle, the dorkus at the end of the headphone jack clips into a small dent on top of the mp3 player so it doesn't fall off when you wear it around your neck Besides the lack of screen, and a light that only blinked to indicate if it was playing normally or shuffle (it had NO battery indicator, so it would die on me randomly) it was actually surprisingly nice? 2 gigs was a decent amount of memory back then and the bloatware was provided, but I just never used it lol. that little dingus 3.5 to USB converter was just permanently in my pencase making it so my mp3 was also just a flashdrive for school All in all I rate it

Let me guess, it was a video you got off some random corner of the internet in some weird format? You also don’t need iTunes to play videos on an iPad.

For videos on iPad, if you really want to get them on there, all you have to do is convert them. iTunes has a built in conversion tool that’s really easy to use. I hope that helps anyone else who might run into that problem.

It's been slow in the past, but never unstable. I still use it daily.

30:05 Mate, that was my MP3 for so freaking long, mine was white though. It carried me through college, it didn't needed software, worked just like an USB, drag and play. I carried my investigation papers and notes in that nugg, I loved it. The "extendy bit" was the best part. Headphones were cromulent too, same with the microphone... I even recorded whole interviews with it. Only reason I gave up on it was the dawn of Android phones, that was it.

I guess these nuggets are so old so that internal flash memory is completely rotten.

“YEEEES!! i mean YEEEEPP!” Been a long time since ive laughed this hard.

For the first time ever, watching Wade "Dankmus" Nixon torture himself over a bunch of Yepp MP3 players made me uncomfortable, especially for a whole 30 minutes.

This whole video is just Wade continually asking the EeePeeCee, "I've shown you my dingus plz respond."

Hey Dank, this is going to sound a little out of nowhere, but I think you'll like it. I just started working at a foundry doing metal casting, and today I started learning how to make the molds the molten metal is poured into. It's made from this black sand that's mixed with chemical binders that make it set and harden. After the hardened sand is taken out of the wooden box it was formed in, some parts of it need to be sanded smooth. Do you want to know what we use for that purpose? _A brick._ We literally use 1 grit sandpaper. As soon as I was handed it and told what to do, all I could think of was your trusty chunk of concrete.

I remember having that Digital Audio Player at the end (in Shrek Green of course!) and it was super easy to use if you ignored the bloatware and just loaded it up through Windows Media Player

I didn't come here for 30 minutes of Samsung nuggets, I came here for 30 minutes of dankpod 😅

Thanks for showcasing this. The memories of my Samsung Yepp nugg that I lost in the sea were never forgotten

to have so much wonderful technology and not know how to use it, the funniest thing I've ever seen

I had the last smas nugget. Remember fiddling with that extendable usb indefinitely during classes. I think I bought it because it was really solid price and it had like 2 gigs, which was A TON in 2007

should've call it the Smasnugg-a-thon

That Samsung Pebble brings back memories! I love that nugget so much. I had one in green and wearing it on my neck during work runs in 2012-2013 was fun. Didn't use the software CD installer to transfer music if I remembered correctly. The headphones broke, which eventually made me stop using it and went back to using my old BlackBerry as my music player.

I'm guessing the sound isn't working because they've got a non-standard layout on the 3.5mm jack. Started this trend and Apple has kept it going to this day, but Samsung joined in for a bit too. Since it's early MP3 it's probably mono sound to save space and then playing that one channel of sound right into the mic channel. And that's why the Samsung dirty buds work, cause they've got the matching non-standard 3.5mm plug to the non-standard 3.5mm jack.

I had one of those lil usb stick samsungs featured at the end and i LOVED that thing. My idiot ADHD riddled brain played with the switch blade USB action for days. At one point it went through the wash after sitting in my school trousers for too long and the screen refused to work on it. STILL WORKED THOUGH and i learnt how to use it without a screen and kept it going for a solid year before it finally died on me. I miss mp3s

it wouldn't connect to the third yepp nug because you left the "don't prompt to install this again" box checked at 12:47

This is the best episode he's ever done @24:34

15:18 Damn, I think Elon Musk was working in Smaznug in the past...

yepp™ is the Digital Audio Player.

My mom had one of those first Yepps (the nicer looking one). I still have it in a box somewhere. I used to use it all the time as a kid and I honestly loved it. The Black Eyed Peas song it comes pre-loaded with is "Where Is The Love?" by the way.

The one at 30:00 has a special place in my heart as the first ever mp3 player I owned. Loved the little nugget. I’d record my own tracks on it from the radio since my parents wouldn’t buy music for me 😆

Samsung did have a nice mp3 player back in the day called the P2 which had not to bad audio as long as the headphone socket survived

@Rainquack

OMG, I had the P2 and the P3, and I remember them sounding amazing, with easily double the depth in EQ adjustability (bandwidth and steps up n down) vs. my current Walkman A15. The P3 even had a vibration motor that could sync to the beat, FM recording, bunch of games, a great video player, eBook Reader with good adjustability and a working Flash Player to throw random SWFs from Newgrounds at. I miss that thing so much! I still have the little flat foldy flippy kickstand thingy that came with the P2 - holds my current (also Samsung - A72) phone in either of the two positions without issue. I'll be so devastated when I might lose it.
