Portable DVD CD Player
Selecting a Portable DVD CD Player
Most portable players have a built-in LCD screen and speakers that can give you a miniaturised home theatre experience.
Screen Size and Weight
The player size is the probably the first aspect to be considered when you venture out to select a player. There are also low priced portable DVD CD players without screens, if you intend to plug the player into an existing television set or perhaps an old LCD screen from a car video system. Some DVD players are also capable of handling images in JPEG format that are saved onto a CD.
Comparing Video Outputs
First, get to know the types of video output the player can support. S-video output is another high quality output option that presents an excellent picture. It is also possible to connect many portable DVD CD players with RCA phono connections, but you are likely to lose much of the video quality produced by standard DVD players. Make sure to choose a player with a video output that suits your television or screen.
Quality Audio Outputs
The choice of audio outputs boils down to any optical and coaxial cable type connections that are offered by your chosen player. There are a large number of headphone models on offer, sporting a built-in headphone jack, or multiple headphone jacks, and even wireless headphone support.
Digital Surround Sound
Watching a movie on a portable DVD CD player with digital surround sound can transport you to a miniature virtual theatre environment.
Batteries
Portable DVD CD players are almost always equipped with internal rechargeable batteries, with some having a provision for using AA batteries when the internal batteries run out. Check to see that your player’s battery is equipped to run an entire movie! If you intend to use the DVD player in your car, remember to get the battery charger that is compatible with the car’s charging system. If you want to connect your DVD player to other audio equipment, or to the television set, then there are choices of regular A/V connections that can give the best video and audio outputs. You may also have the option of being able to connect the portable DVD CD player to your car, and listening to the audio output through the car speakers.
Warranty Period
Portable DVD CD players usually come with a manufacturer’s warranty of one year. The clarity, sound and convenience offered by a portable DVD player should give you and your family hours of high quality entertainment.
