Battery
Tried to watch a DVD with the battery fully charged and found that there is no way to watch a complete movie without recharging the battery. Battery life should be longer...

Battery Wouldn't Charge
The battery wouldn't charge at first and we sent the intial one back for replacement. The new one wouldn't charge either. This seems to be a common problem for this item, but we tried watching a movie with the player plugged in and it worked fine. We then discovered that the player would then charge..

Looks great...but
I purchased two of these - one for each child. We charged them the recommended time before use. Neither of them worked, so we charged them again, this time overnight. They still did not work. I have to say, though, that they did work when plugged in. My kids really liked them - they come with ..

I did encounter the same recharging problems and ...
Just do what was mentioned below by the other reviewer. Plug in the DVD with the power switch on and watch an entire movie (90+ minutes). After doing this, remove the plug, turn the POWER switch OFF, then start recharging it. Once you do this, it keeps the charge for up to 2+ hours. Also, I noti..

Battery wont charge
I did like the features of it being handy,compact,small and with clear crisp colored picture, but the problem with this product is it defeats its purpose of having a portable DVD because the built in rechargeble battery does not charge. I bought one, recharged it for eight hours as the instructions ..

Mine wouldn't charge either
I also had trouble with the first one charging so I sent it back and now the second one won't charge either. What a pain! The product is great but if it won't charge, I cant use it on airplanes. Will try to find another brand without this problem...

This is a great portable player for the price, but
I had a similar problem with getting the rechargeable battery to take a charge. I sent the first one back, and the replacement had the same problem. I know some of these batteries have memory problems,so I just played 4 movies in a row with it plugged in. Apparently it slowly charged the battery , b..

Have tried 2 and can't get the battery to charge
I am on my second Audiovox D1420 (returned the first). Neither would take a charge. Opened the first one on Christmas morning and I was a excited to try it out - popped in a DVD and before giving a full charge (used the power cord) so I thought maybe that caused the dead battery problem, but when ..

Does More Than I Expected
When I bought this I was hoping it would play mp3 from DVDs, though it only advertises mp3 CD. It does, handling the DVD just as it would a CD (full directory access and automatic progression between songs). Now I can carry all the music I want during a trip on a single disk. It also plays DVD vi..

Not sure if I will keep it
Just got it and I'm not sure if I will keep it. The buttons are all in different awkward places, including the manual "open" for putting in the DVD. The "joystick" button for moving thru on- screen menus is hard to use and very annoying. There is no remote control. You have to buy your own cable if ..

For the price it's the most satisfying portable player ever.
Great design-has desk stand built in. Screen quality very good for the size. Built in speakers are above average. For better sound use headphones or get a small FM transmitter and send the audio to your table radio/stereo system. Battery life could be better at only 2.5 hours. DC/AC adapter included..

No remote and carry-case not mountable
I just received mine. It's great.
However, contrary to Amazon's "Product Information", there is NO "full function wireless remote" included. And (also contrary to Amazon's info), the "nylon carry case that's mountable to a car headrest" is surely NOT mountable to a car headrest (unless you have x..

Cute Little Portable DVD Player
I bought this to use on our trip since we have a 4 hour plane ride. The screen size is smaller but I love the compact size ... almost like a portable cd player. The resolution is excellent and the sound quality is better than most. I wish the battery wasn't built in so I could use a second battery..
