I bought mine from Costco. I discovered that audiovox does not provide tech support for the Costco units, nor a manual. My volume is poor. I have a feeling that this one is going back to Costco. I am not a technical person, but setting it up was duck soup. This is the first portable DVD player I have ever purchased and hope that the resolution on other brands is better. Right now, in order to get a good picture, I have to be in the dark. I wish I had known that Audiovox is owned by RCA.

I wanted a portable DVd player for my flight to Jamaica and after MONTHS of research I finally settled on this one because I got tired of RESEARCHING. I was able to watch 2 1/2 movies on the LONG 5 hr flight. I don't know if I could've watched a full 3 movies on the battery because I fell asleep and my husband turned the player off right before we landed.
We did utilize the AC adapter that came with the player to watch movies indoors without using the battery and it worked fine. Nice picture and sound quality.
This player served it's purpose and so far, I'm glad that I made the purchase.
Oh yeah, mine didn't come with a carrying case or 2 sets of headsets. Was I cheated??

I too just purchased this from [...]. I really like the fact that it comes with a carrying case, 2 sets of headsets, and the car adapter, rechargable battery and home adapter, and connector pieces. So far so good. It was really easy to "set" up the first time. Simple plain instructions and a trouble shooting section. We bought it for a car trip to tahoe. We are planning on using it as much as possible during the next 90 days to make sure we like it and it works for us before the warrenty runs out. The carrying case converts to the "straps" to hold the dvd player to the headrest. I like that and i don't. When you have it hooked up to your headrest there is no where to store the other pieces. (headphones / adapters / battery etc). As far as the other comments go about hooking it up to the battery or unhooking it, that seems silly to me. It's just one quick step to pull out the battery and store it, and really i would prefer to have the dvd player hooked up to my car so that i would never have to worry about the dvd player battery running dead on a car trip. save the battery for when you really need it. I don't know, that's just my opinion. Like i said, so far so good. Nice picture, nice sound, good sound w/ headphones. Haven't tried anything else but the dvd aspect of it yet.
Great little player. January 5, 2008

We just bought this (from Costco) and so far so good. The picture is great and the sound is good as well. I liked that it had two headphone jacks.
It has straps to mount it to the headrest of your car, but they don't work with the battery in. That is my one and only complaint. Not a deal breaker for me, but may be for some. We just plug it in to the car and it works but I'd prefer to not have to plug it in.
so far so good! December 20, 2007

I have done months worth of research on portable DVD players, and finally I decided that Audiovox had the least amount of problems associated with it not reading discs, or the screen breaking etc. So i went to Costco, and bought 2 of these, for $129.99 each. One is for my parents, and one for me. I've opened mine, and it works very well.
My favorite feature is the USB port. We record a lot of TV that gets stored as MPEGS on our computers, so this way, i can just throw a show on my memory stick, plug it into the DVD player, and voila! I can watch a show in the kitchen while cooking, in the bathroom while taking a nice hot bath, or anywhere else!
The speaker volume goes very high, and if you don't need to see what's going on, you can watch from across the room!
I did notice that the response time does depend on what format you are using. If I'm using the USB stick, things take a while, and if you push buttons too fast, it will freeze. No problem, turn it off then back on, and start again. DVDs work pretty quickly, and the remote works well. (Remote uses an everyday watch battery, so easy to replace). CDs take a while to load, and sound like something is breaking inside until the music starts. Then it quiets down. if you have CDs or memory sticks with MP3s in it, don't put them in different folders. The player gets confused if they're not in the main directory.
So far I haven't found anything majorly wrong yet. I'll find out how the SD memory card slot works when my parents open theirs. I'll update with anything else I find!
Audiovox only gives a 90 day warrantee on this, and Costco's return policy is the same. If you buy it on Amazon or Walmart, and I'm sure Target and other stores, you can buy 3 year replacement warrantees, but they're a little more expensive and you have to pay shipping. The warrantee is worth it though! Most of these units, no matter who makes them, will not make it to 3 years.
