How to choose?

The range of mobile DVD players is constantly being updated with more practical and functional innovations.

To navigate the variety and choose the right device, pay attention to a number of characteristics.

  • One of the main parameters is the screen. Some models are equipped with a swivel screen for more comfortable operation. Image resolution is important. The higher it is, the better the picture quality.
  • The diagonal also matters. If you are going to take the player frequently on the road, it is better to buy a compact device with a diagonal of about 7-8 inches. For stationary use, models with parameters from 9 to 12 inches are better suited.
  • To watch movies from flash drives and other media, there must be appropriate connectors on the case. Information about them is indicated in the technical specifications.
  • The battery and its capacity are responsible for the duration of the work. If you are going to use the player without connecting it to the network or cigarette lighter, pay attention to this parameter.
  • Modern models read almost all current media file formats. However, it is recommended that you still pay special attention to this point and check that the player you have selected supports the required format.
  • The sound is reproduced through the built-in speakers. If their power is not enough, additional acoustics can be connected to the player. For this, a standard jack port (3.5 mm) is used. Pay attention to its availability.
  • CDs fade into the background, while some users continue to use them. In this case, the selected model must read discs of different formats.

How to use?

Modern manufacturers offer customers multifunctional equipment with simple and intuitive operation, even for beginners who first encounter such devices.

Having entered the "Settings" mode, the user has the opportunity to change the contrast of the screen, its brightness, work with sound and make other changes for the most comfortable operation.

Use in the car

Most often, portable players are used by drivers, among them both ordinary taxi drivers and employees serving long-distance flights. In this case, you can use a special adapter that connects to the cigarette lighter.

The process is carried out as follows:

  • take the adapter and connect it to the car cigarette lighter (as a rule, it is included in the kit);
  • the other side of the plug is inserted into the corresponding socket of the player;
  • turn on the device by pressing the button;
  • play a movie (or play music) from disc or digital media.

Attention! Clean the cigarette lighter before use. Poor electrical contact may result in the adapter not working. The engine must be running with this connection. When starting or stopping the engine, the adapter must be disconnected. In some cases, the adapter may not fit the cigarette lighter of a particular car brand.

Synchronization with TV

Portable equipment can be connected to a TV, using it like a regular DVD player, watching video on a large screen.

The connection is made as follows:

  • turn off the player and TV before starting;
  • then you need to take the AV cable (included), connect it to the player through the appropriate connector and to the TV;
  • turn on the TV;
  • on the TV, you need to press the TV / Video button and select a portable device;
  • after that, turn on the gadget and, by pressing the MODE key, select the AV mode;
