Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
This 9-inch TV/DVD combo is all about convenience, from its petite, kitchen-friendly size (roughly 12 inches cubed) to its full features and portability. That's right: the MD9DL1 is AC/DC capable, so you can run it off a standard electrical outlet or from your motor vehicle's cigarette lighter--it even comes with a car cord.

Video features
Toshiba's MD9DL1 offers a 9-inch CRT screen, full onscreen display for easy setup and operation, full closed captioning to assist those hard of hearing or new to the English language, and auto degauss to ensure regular maintenance. The DVD player's zoom and game modes enliven your movies and games.

Audio features
You'll get Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel outputs--hook it up with your surround-decoding AV receiver to enjoy immersive, multichannel surround sound; setup requires a surround speaker system as well. No such hookup is required, though, as you can always listen through the unit's front stereo speakers. SAP (second audio program) gives you alternate-language or other audio programming on specially encoded broadcasts.

Connections
Front AV input jacks let you plug in a camcorder, gaming console, VCR, or other device, and rear AV output jacks can feed a VCR or an AV receiver. Similarly, a coaxial (single RCA tip) digital-audio output fosters hookup with a surround-decoding AV receiver. At the other end of the spectrum, a 0.128-inch headphone jack grants the option of private listening.

Other features
Auto channel memory, auto channel set, and last channel recall make your TV viewing a breeze, while DVD parental lock and V-Chip parental control help you keep underage eyes from mature content. The MD9DL1 comes with a sleep timer and a multifunction, multikey remote control. The unit measures 12.26 by 10.98 by 12.3 inches and weighs 19.3 pounds.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a treat!, November 11, 2001

By A Customer

I was looking for a TV/VCR combination for my office/guest room and came across the Toshiba TV/DVD option and couldn't resist. I was worried that the 9" screen would be to small but it's a perfect size AND it's AC/DC so I can take it anywhere. The picture is crystal clear, the sound is great, it's compact, and it looks great too. DVD operation is very easy and the remote is easy to use. Go ahead and spend the extra money. You won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kids in the back? What kids?, December 8, 2001

By	Aaron C. Dial (Wilmington, DE) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We were looking for a little tv to put in the kitchen so my wife could catch the news at dinner, etc.. Luckily we drifted into the right store ...as they're not in every electronics store, but when we came across the Toshiba 9' TV/DVD combo with ac/dc adaption, we knew we had missile lock. Dvds, a given they're far superior in picture quality to vhs, take up far less space in a car. We have a 2 year old who is less car friendly than most--plug in Toy Story and that's the last we hear from him. ZAP! On top of these advantages, the unit is a Toshiba which I feel is better than most in terms of quality, picture, etc.. Color us very satisfied after a couple months of use, so far. We paid ... for an open box unit (had all its parts)--but they're normally...

5.0 out of 5 stars Vacation/Sanity Saver!, June 1, 2002

By	Petchy Sargent (Santa Fe, NM United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently purchased this tv because my daughter, her husband, their two young children and I were going on a 3,000 mile car trip. We stocked up on DVD's, put the tv and the kids in the back seat of my minivan, and had a glorious trip. No complaints from the kids! I now plan on taking it to my gift/sandwich shop so that my customers can enjoy the DVD's as they sip their coffee or eat lunch.
