With the DVPFX1, you can watch DVD movies in 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratios, and listen through the built-in speakers that flank the screen. Or purchase a pair of headphones, plug them into the headphone jack, and enjoy the SRS simulated surround mode in private. You can also listen to music CDs.
The DVPFX1 is compatible with Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround formats. It has an optical digital audio output, so you can connect the DVPFX1 to a TV and use it as a standalone DVD player. Sony's DVPFX1 has composite and S-Video outputs, as well as a set of audio-video inputs that enable you to connect a camcorder and watch home videos on the 7-inch screen.
With its slim dimensions, the DVPFX1 is perfect for long airline flights and hotel rooms. It's also great for kids on long road trips. A custom parental control feature enables you to lock out up to 50 discs.
Advanced features include an onscreen video bit-rate meter that allows you to monitor MPEG-2 compression ratios, SmoothScan and SmoothSlow for forward and reverse searches, and Virtual Enhanced Surround. The player comes with a full- function remote and has basic control functions that are accessible from the top panel.

somewhat disappointed,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sony DVP-FX1 Portable DVD Player (Electronics)
the new sony dvd player is not what i would have expected from Sony. The sound is fabulous when using earphones. However,the picture clarity is not nearly as defined as the Panasonic. I have both and the picture quality doesn't compare. The Panasonic is light years ahead of Sony in this area. the Sony being the most expensive player on the market leaves you disappointed in the picture and external sound quality.However, it is lighter and easier to handle than the Panasonic. I would not trade picture quality for ease and handling.

What? No power cord?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sony DVP-FX1 Portable DVD Player (Electronics)
I have always been a fan of Sony products and recently eagerly awaited the release of their new portable DVD, the DVP FX1. However, I was told by the Sony rep in its Chicago store that FX1 cannot be plugged into a car or airplane outlet; extra batteries would have to be bought and carried instead. I intend to use the portable DVD almost exclusively on car and airplne trips so I will find another brand instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Sony's FINEST!!!!!!!!!!!,
By Kenny Arnold (Poway, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony DVP-FX1 Portable DVD Player (Electronics)
Wow!!! This portable DVD player is my favorite Sony toy!!! Not only is the video quality excellent but there are also A/V inputs and outputs. In other words, hook it up to a big TV or hook your VCR or camera up to it. I think the most important feature is that it can play dual layer discs. Often confused with double sided discs, dual layer is two metal films on one side of the disc. It's basically 2x regular DVD data on only one side. Although tricky at first, the navigation system is well planned and well thought out. As a bonus, it uses enhanced signals when a Glasstron headset is connected to the player. I strongly recommend this product, mostly due to the quality of Sony but also due to its overwhelming coolness factor. I wish I could give it more than five stars!!
