The screen is to small and if you are willing to spend and extra $50 then got to costco and get a 7in screen that plays real dvds. Dont get this junk that will be around for no more than 6 months

Hi, I would just like to let anyone know who might be considering this product that I have written the manufacturer regarding replacement accessories (i.e. replacement battery, AC adapter...etc) and I was told that there are NO replacement accessories available for this model. It may not sound like a big deal but how good is a cute little take-along DVD player once the rechargable battery stops holding a charge and no replacements are available?? Kinda takes the "portable" out of the equation since your only option would be to plug it in when using it (not too handy in a car). While my previous review of this product was quite high, getting this information disgusted me such that I would not recommend this as a smart purchase because, in essence, you might as well consider it as a "disposable" DVD player since you have no way of replacing either the battery or AC adapter should they no longer work or if you lose them. In summary, unless you get this DIRT CHEAP, its not a wise investment!!!

Got these for my sons. Battery time is great, probably due to the small screens.

Note these play mini-DVDs (camcorder DVDs) - just pick up blanks at walmart, amazon, target, etc. and use DVD shrink to convert your regular DVDs.

I bought 2 of these dvd players for my nephews for Christmas. Very disappointed. Was not aware this was a MINI DVD. Hard to use. No instructions for playing regular movies, only scooby doo type cartoons are available in our local charlotte mall. Very Disapointed.

for $30 here is the good and bad of this player in human form :D

good:
pretty much skipless
loud volume for mp3's
plays .mp3,mp2 audio and .mpg video straight off a isoDVDFS (drop and burn with nero like a data dvd)
surpisingly clean picture for the size, i can read the titles for my mp3s on it
about the size of a gameboy advance

now the BAD
1. it doesnt charge the battery in the player so you either have to plug it in or take the battery and cord and hook it to the charger
2. the company website is for sale so if the battery pack goes out you will have to 'rebuild' the old one (around $10 to do if you have a old cellphone battery or 2)
no tv out (throw the disc in a dvd player and enjoy so not a biggie)

overall for $30 i am impressed, i use it more or less a a mp3 player than anything sees you can get 2.8GB dual layer dvds and it has to be pretty much slammed to skip. i also watch movies i make on it with little complaints even though they are out of spec (72 frames in a GOP,etc)

so knowing all that i would still buy it again

enjoy

I think this dvd player looks great! I do not have it but i might get it for x-mas. It looks good in the stores. If anoyone has any advice for me please tell. I do not know what portable dvd player to get for x-mas.
