JWIN JD-VD745 Portable DVD Player

The Good:
I have owned this item for more than a year and it still works great, it has great audio & Video, you can change the audio and subtitles with one push of a button like a regular DVD player, play CD-R's with MP3's, Pictures, VCD and burned DVD's, you can also use it on the road as a normal TV set changing the outputs to inputs with a button letting you play video games on it or to view a camcoder's image. You can also rotate the screen to view it upside down for those who want to attach it to the roof of a vehicle, and it also has two headphone jacks, S-Video, Digital Audio, ect.

The Bad:
It doesn't come with the car power adaptor, :(
Audio & Video cables are short (You will have to have it next to the TV Set for regular use).
Only comes with RCA video & Audio cables.

JWIN 745 bomb

I received the JWIN 745 as a Christmas gift. I used it to play three DVDs and liked the screen size and sound. I didn't use it for about 9 months, it being stored in a drawer in the environmentally controlled house undisturbed. I placed a DVD in the player and it spun up until the DVD stopped spinning and the screen said "stop". It did not play. I replaced the DVD with two others that played on my other equipment. No luck. I looked up JWIN to see about warranty and haven't had success.
I don't plan to purchase any JWIN products in the near future.

affordable video toy for kids & adults

I just bought this thing last night at Brandsmart for way less than shown here. It was so inexpensive, it was almost an impulse buy. I've researched these things, and I wanted to get one that would play home made CD's w/.jpg files. The saleperson was clueless of course. But, I brought it home & it played my .jpg CD's perfectly. It has an on-screen file system, easy controls, plays DVD's very well, and has a very nice clean image. It also played my bootleg DiVx CD-R's, .mp3's, and audio CD's. I was very pleased. Bad stuff: the image given doesn't show the battery pack attached. It latches onto the back, and adds some bulk to the player. It's also just an ordinary heavy NiMh battery, not a Lithium Ion. There was no car power adapter included either. Good stuff: It has a neat little remote control, it operates just like a regular DVD player, looks good sitting on a coffee table, and will hopefully satisfy my desire to have a neat little digital photo album. It's also very affordable, and makes a nice birthday present for a big kid like me.
