I am not sure if you have the same player I do or not but I have a Philips player with USB on the front also and I run a 500GB HDD to it and here is what I found out. I mostly convert my videos to divx as that is what the player wants to playback files at. I have some DVD files and I don't have skipping issues like you are saying ,but the chapters, menus, ect won't show up if played from the USB but they do when I burn them to DVD so what I suggest is either convert the videos to DIVX AVI files or maybe just burn them to a DVD or CD if they are small enough and try that.
