What a waste of money
We purchased our DVD player in June 2005 from HH Gregg for $140. By December the screen would sometimes turn white so that we couldn't see the picture. Within a few months the screen stayed white all of the time, so that now we cannot play dvds at all. Audiovox wants $94 to fix it. I'm sure that..

Good player - Bad battery
I bought this player well over a year ago. I have not had one problem with the player itself. The picture is great and the sound is good. The battery never lasted very long though. It developed "memory" and won't last more than 10 minutes. I may invest in another batter and try it again, but am..

Good player, some flaws
A good portable player, one that has held up well to a lot of use and abuse. The biggest flaw is the battery pack design... you can't use the device while the battery charging. I hope Audiovox fixed this in later models...

Works Great!
I've had it for almost a year now and I haven't had any problems whatsoever. Sound and picture quality is great! Controls are really easy to use and remote sure comes in handy...

This should be changed to one star for durability!
I bought this when my "Durabrand" dual-screen DVD player died after only 8 or 10 uses in the car. I was very impressed with the screen when I compared it head to head with the Panasonic (and the Panasonic was more than double the $$) and the screen was worlds better than the Durabrand. The screen ..

Great for the Money
We bought this for our 3 year old daughter to watch videos in the car and on airplanes. It has been a life saver. It has survived drops, kicks, and tantrums and still works great. The battery life and picture are good. Of course there are a lot better out there, but if you are looking for something ..

You get what you pay for.
I bought this unit at a warehouse store. We have it strung up in the minivan for the kids to watch. We too get the no disc message, but thats when we leave it in the van overnight in very cold weather (less than 45 degrees). So, we pull it out everynight and pop it back in every morning. It does..

Battery Problems
I bought this DVD player and after 3 months (used it 2 times) the battery won't take a charge. I called customer service and they said it would cost $100 just to look at the unit. I refuse to pay $100 just to have the unit looked at. I will cut my losses and but a better brand. STAY AWAY FROM AUDIOV..

Stopped working on day 2
My son won this at school through a magazine sales promotion. We hooked it up that afternoon and verified that it worked. The next morning, the drive failed to spin. Audiovox won't respond to any request for help - at least, not without a store receipt. Fortunately, we didn't lose any money, but..

Its great, UNTIL IT STOPS WORKING.
I am writing this review in hopes that you will listen to my warning and not buy this player. I wish I had listened to the reviews on other websites that gave the same warning. I bought this 6 months ago for my daughters birthday. Most of its use was in the house, hooked up to an extra television. I..
