What's up with this player

I have had this dvd player for less than 6 months and it acts like it is 100 years old. DVD's will not play, the big and bulky battery no longer charges. Even pluged-in it spits and sputters. You press a button and nothing happens. The company is no help! BUY THE WARRANTY!!! It did work great the first 2 times I used it!

Very competitive product with the feature set.

The picture quality is great. The sound is much louder than other 10" portable DVD players that I have tested. It plays multiple types of discs, +/-R and R/W, but I have had a couple that were jittery playback, but it could be my burns that I did.

The big battery makes it stick out a little further so that it makes it hard to find a case to fit, so I ended up modifying/cutting a case to make it fit.

The only other gotcha is the input to the tuner is a flimsy connection, so if you plug your cable in at home, then the weight of the cable will make the connector go at odd angles. It still works, but I am worried about it breaking so I used the same case and cut a hole and then plugged in the adaptor, which prevents the cable from going off at the weird angles.

The battery life is not that long, about 2.5hours and there is no battery meter that I can find, so your watching it and it just stops when the battery dies.

If they added a battery meter and made the cable input more durable, I would give it five stars as for the price, this is a great product.

Nice unit

So far so good. We have had the DVD player for just a short while, but it seems to perform as it should. The included TV antenna has some trouble picking up signals from inside, but works good stuck on the top of the car. The unit also includes a cable TV adapter.
