Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you're traveling cross-country or want to show your DVDs at a friend's house across town, the Mintek MDP-1810KIT portable DVD player is an all-in-one, easy-to-carry entertainment package: the player and its stereo headphones slide into a supplied carry case. The unit plays DVD-Video (both NTSC and PAL-formatted discs), CDs (including recordable and rewriteable CDs), MP3-filled music discs, and Kodak Picture CDs for custom slide shows of your digital photos. A bright, 8-inch TFT(active-matrix) color LCD makes any program look great, and it's configured in a 16:9 widescreen dimension that matches the shape of most DVD movies.

At home, you can connect the player to a television (either composite- or S-video), and--when it's hooked up to a compatible audio/video receiver and multichannel speaker system--the tiny player can bring soundtracks to life with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel sound.

Designed for easy use on the road, the MDP-1810KIT includes a high-capacity rechargeable lithium battery pack, a car power adapter, and an AC power adapter. Its built-in anti-shock system helps prevent annoying interruptions. Listen through headphones or use the built-in stereo speakers. A wireless remote control will come in handy when you're sitting across the room from the player, as when you have it connected to a TV.

It supports multiple audio language tracks and multilingual subtitles, and you can select from multiple camera angles on DVDs providing that option. Among other key features are 6-mode picture zoom, 4-speed slow motion, fast forward and reverse search, chapter preview ("digest") mode, random play, and repeat play--a feature that's especially useful for trade shows or demonstrations.

What's in the Box
CD player, a high-capacity rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack (external), a remote control, remote battery, stereo headphones, a carrying case, an AC/DC power adapter, a vehicle DC power adapter, audio/video hookup cables, and a user's manual.

4.0 out of 5 stars It works for me, May 7, 2005

By	Martha Hynes (Los Angeles, Ca USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have used this product for 2 1/2 years. I have 4 children who take it on every trip; watch it in the car, on planes, on boats, wherever. It has been used/abused and keeps on working just fine. The battery lasts about 3 hours before needing recharging. The car adaptor works well.

1.0 out of 5 stars Played one DVD before dying, January 1, 2005

By	Media Gypsy (Media, PA) - See all my reviews

Our Mintek MDP-1810 portable DVD player played one DVD before it died. The motor started making strange rubbing noises, and the display started blinking.

The one DVD it managed to play sure looked good -- the picture was sharp, and contrast and color were terrific. I just wish it still worked. Its replacement will come from a more reputable manufacturer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stopped working...., October 13, 2005

By	KDuffy (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews

I bought this DVD player for my husband and son for the car. I watched one DVD. My brother watched two DVDs during a car trip that we took to meet family. When he tried to load another DVD half way through the trip, it wouldn't load any more. We tried several different DVDs, even called the manufacturer for help. The manufacturer suggested that we try cleaning it, trying an audio CD, etc. None of these suggestions worked.

I will be returning this DVD, and purchasing another brand.
