Audiovox D1700 Portable DVD Player

With the Audiovox D1700 portable DVD player, you'll never be bored while traveling. The lightweight player's 7-inch widescreen display uses antiglare and antireflective coatings designed for bright conditions, so you won't have to book a red-eye flight just to be able to watch your movies. The player handles a variety of formats, including audio and MP3-encoded CD-Rs.

Video features
Brightness and color buttons let you adjust the picture to your taste and viewing conditions. A display button cycles through the player's aspect ratios, with its native 16:9 being the default. Other modes are "cinema," "normal," and "off" (you can conserve battery power if you're listening to music).

Audio features
The Audiovox D1700 features built-in stereo speakers. Virtual Surround (by Q Surround) simulates surround sound when you're listening to the latest Hollywood blockbusters via the onboard speakers, headphones, or your home stereo.

Connections
The supplied headphones plug directly into a 0.125-inch headphone jack (compatible with all minijack-terminated headphones). The headphone jack doubles as an optical digital-audio output for use with a minijack-to-Toslink fiber-optic cable (see accessories, below).

The AV outputs (composite-video with stereo analog audio) can also serve as AV inputs. Simply switch "Output" to "Input" and use the provided interconnect to feed the player a signal from a camcorder, VCR, game console, or other video device.

Other features
The player handles a variety of discs including DVDs, Video CDs, audio compact discs, CD-Rs, and MP3-encoded discs. The portable DVD player is powered by a lithium ion battery rated for three hours of playback. A hold switch prevents unintended stopping or starting of disc playback.

In the box
The D1700 comes with a universal AC/DC power adapter, an audio-video interconnect, an S-video cable, earphones, a power cord, a wireless remote control (with battery), rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack, vehicle power adapter, and a battery charger.
