Amazon.com Product Description
Watch movies the way they were meant to be viewed with the MPD720 portable DVD player from Magnavox. This lightweight player features a 7-inch LCD display with a theater-like 16:9 aspect ratio. A rechargeable battery can run the player for up to 3 hours, and you can plug it in anywhere for longer viewings. The MPD720 plays DVDs, CDs, MP3s, and more, so you can bring along all your favorite videos and music.
The screen on the MPD720 is a thin-film-transfer (TFT) display that generates clear images without adding unnecessary bulk to the portable player. While you can enjoy movies everywhere you go with the built-in screen, you can connect the player to any television to watch your DVDs on a bigger screen. The MPD720 features both composite and S-ideo connections to link the player to another TV.
The MPD720 plays DVDs and CDs (including discs burned on a computer), as well as VCDs. You can also play MP3s from CD-Rs and CD-RWs, and view digital JPEG photos. The MPD720 features built-in stereo speakers and a headphone jack for private viewing or listening. For even fuller sound, hook the player up to an audio receiver through the digital optical audio connection to experience rich surround sound.
The MPD720 can go anywhere you go. Use it at home by plugging the player into a wall outlet, or run it in the car with the DC power adapter. After watching a movie, the battery can be quickly and easily recharged with the included charger.

Enjoy Your Shiny New Paperweight.......2007-10-09
This product demonstrated its unwillingness to work as soon as I put my first DVD in it. It was so scratch sensitive that it began skipping and hanging up on one of my own films immediately. I knew that if this thing handled my own purchased DVDs like that (which I take good care of), then it doesn't stand a prayer with the scratched, hacked copies the rental places distribute. An inability to read through simple scratches is a must nowadays, given the technology these players are capable of. Lucky I was still within the warranty period, or else I'd be taking slapshots with this player against my garage door.
No problems after 1.5 years.......2006-07-22
We've had no performance issues with ours. Have two boys, 6 & 4, who are the primary users so it's not exactly been handled with care. It still holds up well, loads the discs with no problem. My only complaint would be that for some movies, I'm not able to get the image bright enough to be seen clearly. This thing has saved our sanity on many cross-country trips to visit family. Has done well both in the car and on planes.
Magnavox MPD720 is not for the long haul.......2006-03-03
After reading good reviews for this on Amazon.com, I purchased it February 2005. Now I am seeing the more critical reviews from the period after my purchase. The criticism is justified. Within the first 90 days, the Magnavox MPD720 was no longer playing despite no abuse - usually played from my nightstand. I sent it back to the manufacturer who replaced it. Recently I began to hear the dreaded grinding and see the now familiar mid-scene pause - it has stopped loading. So within a year, two machines failed.
I did not feel the volume was adequate from the beginning. The battery did work well on a vacation last year; however, it protrudes in such a way as to make the unit not fit in the case when used to hold it in position in a car.
Yesterday I purchased a Philips portable dvd player which was recommended on this site. It is the same company as the Magnavox, but the model looks like a completely different product so I can only hope. I do not have the budget to replace it annually.
The best reviews are not the ones from people who have just turned on the machine or are quoting the product sheet, but who have had some time to see how the machine works over time.
Thanks to others who took the time to analyze what they do and don't like about their portable dvd players. Without these informed comments, we are buying blind.
Great little player!.......2006-02-09
I purchased this DVD player at our local Wal-Mart as a Christmas gift (2004) for my husband who was being deployed to Iraq. He used this player every single day while he was gone and did not have any problems. We have continued to use it since he has been home now and still do not have any problems. In fact, I am here to purchase the car adapter for a trip we will be taking!
Another Broken Player.......2006-02-09
Like many of the other reviews on this page the DVD player broke after about a months use. You can hear the sound but the screen doesn't work.
Sounds like a defective product to me.

My portable hard drive saved me from loosing everything.......2007-10-23
The portable hard drive is very easy to use. A week after I got it, my laptop's hard drive got corrupted and I would have lost practically everything if I had not saved everything in my portable hard drive.
Do NOT buy! lost all in 2 mos.......2007-08-25
After having it for 2 mos, it just stopped working without any damage or surge occuring to it! All of our pictures and comp. programs were on it. Customer svc. said sorry,"if the red light comes on that means it has died". They said they'd send us a new one, but who wants to trust that product again with your valuables and memories!
Do Not Buy This Product!.......2007-08-22
I am a photographer and I purchased this device to store my pictures and portfolio on it worked fine for a couple of months and then just crashed one day. I lost everything and there is no hope of getting it back. Dont waste your money!
Portable and Easy to Use.......2007-04-25
One of the first questions a help desk asks you when you call to complain about your computer not working is: "Have you backed up your files?" Most people I know don't back up their files and cuss up and down when their hard drives fails and loses all their files. So BE PROACTIVE! This little handy-dandy easy-to-use external disk drive is great! I highly recommend it.
