Now I'm thinking about getting a different player. The DVD wouldn't strat giving us an error message (H03). It hasn't been even two years since we got it, we started hjaving troubles with it. A month later - the same problem. We were extremely satisfied with this DVD player. It has very good headrest mounting system, so our long car trips became fun for our at the time 2-year-old. We sent the unit to the authorized service center, where it was refurbished (or replaced with a refurbished unit).
SO MY ADVICE IS : DON'T BUY PANASONIC LEST THEY DISCONTINUE THE BATTERY LATER. Panasonic has discontinued the battery, and without it the player won't work even on mains power. However, the built-in but detachable battery just went bad and needs replacing. All Panasonic is prepared to do is offer a small discount to buy a much inferior unit. I purchase in 2004 a Panasonic DVD-LX9 portable DVD player for $800. Until recently, it worked fine. So, my expensive investment is now quite useless.
I wanted it mainly to show digital photographs that I had put onto a dvd. My three year old grandson loves it, he feels so grown up with the ear phones on watching his own little tv. I have really enjoyed this little jewel. I have been quite pleased.
good product with good battery even though it is a refurbished one. I can see the whole DVD disc without recharging the battery.
Other than the battery life, the unit works great. I have to increase the speed of playback to watch an entire movie of around 2 hours. Purchased this to use on the airplane but I am a bit disappointed. The battery life is marginal. I decreased the brightness as suggested but then the picture is difficult to view.
