7" portable DVD player with remote - Walmart, $50
I was browsing through the Guelph Walmart at lunch today and noticed that they were marking a lot of items in the toy section to clearance.
I found a Superman (yeah, I know, but for this price, I couldn't resist
) 7" portable DVD player for $50. Can't remember exactly what the original price was, but it was in the region of $120.
OK, so you may not sit on the plane and watch a movie with this, but it's great while sitting on the john and other non-public places!
In the setup menu, there's an option to choose NTSC or PAL. I was hoping that it was region free as I have a collection of R2 discs, but it came up "Wrong Region" when I tried them.
I've taken a look on videohelp, but there's no reference to this model and I couldn't find the "real" manufacturer for this portable to see if they had the same chipsets, etc._______________

That's for the video output (to TV).
You can try to figure out the chipset by how the setup menus look sometimes. Reply With Quote

No, no divx / xvid unfortunately. That was actually my 1st test of the player!
I threw in a disc with some movies on there and got excited when it showed the directory structure. So I clicked into the folders, but no files were shown. I guess it shows folders for when you play jpg's or mp3's._______________

I have seen in a couple of Calgary area stores. Northland and Airdrie, I think.

My googling skills are rather poor. Does anyone have any specs for this DVD player?
