MP3 player has wierd usb plug

Reece · 05-28-08, 12:09 AM

Hi, I purchased an mp3 player online that came with a standard usb to mini usb cable but the usb plug on the player is wierd (shown on left side of right image):

It is definitely a usb socket as it is marked on the back of the player as such, so far I have not been able to get a cable replacement,

Does anyone recognise this type of plug that might be able to point me to where I can get one.

Many thanks.

The only thing that I found that looks REMOTELY like what you want is a mini type-b female 5 pin, otherwise I suspect it's a proprietary connection simply because the place I've ever been able to find the player is resellers on amazon, nothing about the maker of Rulu, no wiki or google listing in sight.

Good luck.
