Fast forward 11 years we have tech more accessible, but these things back in the day were a lifesaver on long road trips. How times have changed now we’ve got this entire device right in our pocket + more 🤯 Found a set at thrift store for $5 had to pick them up haha

After viewing this video and reading lots of the reviews below, I went out and purchased this. Let me tell you, IT IS NIIIICE!!!!! We had a 7" model we bought a few years back. It kept messing up so bad, we had to get a new one. Since this is basically the same one, set up was a breeze. Even so, it's easy if you never owned one. I have a van, and the larger 9" screen sits perfectly on the handle just below the headrest. (I do what others do, and strap it on the metal bars btwn the headrest and the seat.) I keep the main player btwn the 2 front seats so I can easily work it for my 4yr old. 3 yrs ago, we paid $99. for the 7". For this one, I paid $108. Not a bad upgrade for a few bucks more, a few years later. I love the clear LCD screen. If you find it cheaper, good for you!!! Worth every penny whatever you pay. You wont regret it....

Thanks, this player is still working great after a year.

Thanks for making this video...i was looking at into these and after seeing your vid i will be purchasing them today!!

Great video! Very comprehensive. Really appreciate it! Answered all the questions I had but one and that is the height and width of the actual units...even though, seeing them on the headrests gave me a good idea of how they'd fir on my vehicle.

Good review, thanks for taking the time to post.

Ron Steurer Thanks for your comment!

Very useful video! Thank you for taking the time for posting this, it answers every question i had.

Thanks for review I'm in process of making the my decision to buy them. This helps alot

Good thorough review!

Perfect set up video!!!...thanks! ...im going to pick this set up....

Great video really appreciate the time that you took to review the unit. My question is the viewing from the third row seat if mounted behind the driver seat. Planning a trip with the kids and was just wondering if the volume and viewing angles from the back seat would be adequate for the rear passengers. I appreciate your response in advance.

Can I use both screens for home use? Doesn't seem to work, or is it for car duel use only? Haven't tried in the car yet. Any help. Thanks

Just found an UNOPENED box of these from 2013. It's a dual player set where either unit can feed the other or independent. Hope they work well on our trip. (Over 20 hours with a 4 and 6 year old.

Very helpful KZread clip! Few years back I had the 1st one - Nextar DVD Player MP007. Solid unit. The headrest mounting bracket very very good and the 2nd screen was gone after 3 1/2 years used. The 2nd one is Sylvania 7" Dual-screen Portable DVD Player. It's not good at all. No resume on power loss. Keep start over over again every time stop for gas, coffee....Now I'm looking for 3rd one prepare for long trip vacation on next month after kids school over. Hopefully this one is best! Thanks

Thank you! This is very informative...

OK cool thanks for the info! I do and will be getting these this weekend

very helpful video,thank you :)

Here's a tip. We have a 2015 highlander and the head rests are angled like you were saying you thought would be an issue. We just tightened the buckle around the raised metal post portion instead of the headrest pad. That way the strap doesn't ruin the leather or touch our heads, the screen is level for the kids, and the void between the head and head rest allows for tucking the excess strap in. Cheers!

+dial2fast i do have question sir ... can we use inbulid music system with these units or it only works with iphone ipad or ipod..

Great vdo

how do I make the AV in work? I have the cord but only sound plays.

Sometimes electronics, it can be a real hit and miss. Luckily mine is still working to this day. We just came back from a 4 day trip with the kids and its just as good as the day I got it.

thx for the instructions

looks like it can be strapped around the headrest support rods for better angle in cars with tilted headrests

Great video an asset to KZread community

Thank you!

Looking to get one of these for the truck.. thanks for posting

Nice video and I'm thinking about getting the same unit.

thanks for posting

Thanks going on a 14 hour ride will be picking this item up for the little ones.

How did that go?

good video

Can you only use the main unit and have the one without the dis opening off or do they both have to be on to operate?

i have one and how would i move from like play movie to scene selection and i dont see a control pad thing

I use it 2-3 times a month depending on where I am going with the kids. Still working to this day. I tuck all the wires neatly away so the kids won't walk all over them. Both screens work and sound fine.

Excelente

Is it possible to connect this unit the head unit of the cars' infotainment system.Is there a video in on the masters unit?

Do you happen to know if I am able to add a third screen so this unit? Mine came with two screens but I have three kids. Thank you.

You have a geat day!

Does the second monitor have a Philips splash screen to indicate that it's working? Mine has no picture, but the back light is on. I'm trying to determine if it is a faulty AV wire, or a problem with the monitor.

The slave unit has one 3.5mm AV IN jack with 4 conductors. It's like the one you find on a headphone but with 4 conductors on it for the video and audio. So it depends if your DSLR has that type of dongle.

How does the slave unit play audio? I see just a video cable. And can you hook up a game system to it?

Hey question can you screen mirror to the Steven Spielberg Presents: Tiny Toon Adventures, Season 1, Vol.

Hi I got philips portable dvd player PD9016 today how do you know when its charge

sir thank you for explain Recently i got main unit it works this unit have Remot control How to get sub unit pl advise

No problem. It has an anti-skip buffer built in. Never skips.

You are welcome!

I don't know about the Sylvania, but I have no problem with the audio volume when used in a running vehicle with all the ambient noise. I usually set it to 1/2 to 3/4 volume when driving on the highway. My kids never complain. Before this, I did have a single portable 9" flip up player and that one was barely loud enough. You also have option for headphone jacks on this one.

Great product hu!! What about de sound speakers and the engine sound?

Hi Does it have USB port? To play videos from USB flash drive?

Plz make a video on how to install it

Спасибо за обзор! А видео с юсб он воспроизводит?

Keep in mind you will have to connect that 3.5mm cable to the headphone jack out of either the master or the slave unit. If you must use the headphone simultaneously, then you can also buy a 3.5mm splitter off ebay for cheap.

You will enjoy having this on a long ride. If you kids are too small to work the player's front button, you should take a minute to know where the Play button is so you don't struggle with it while driving. I wish it had a remote.

Rather than wrapping around the actual headrest, try a tighter install but wrapping lower around the headrest metal prongs :)

Excellent post...KUDOS to you! I have a question...do you know where I can get the 9-12 volt DC power cord, mine died...Thanks in advance bud!!!!

Does the disk jump when hitting a bump?

Does this product play movies/photos/music on a usb???

is there DVD player on each? I am planning to buy one for my kids?

Does anyone have any idea how to turn off the parental lock? It will not stop asking me for a pin every few minutes. I have to enter the master pin in the manual every single time because it won't stop popping up.

How long are the power and a/v cords? Looks like they are long to run them down and back up. My old units were 3' so you seen the cords linking them together.

What if the other TV you don't turn on what does that mean what do I have to do..

hello. i need to know about the wiring. what cords connect the slave unit to the master unit?

hows bright in super clear sky daylight?

Hows the audio on this unit compared to other units like Sylvania?

There is a latch on the top and the front screen flips out so you can put in the DVD

My cousin has that in his car it looked cool

Hi - Thanks for this review! How is the length of the cord connecting the two devices? I want to have the main unit attached to the driver seat (so I can reach and manage it from the front seat), and then have the secondary unit attached to one of the middle seats of the van on the passenger side. Are they generous with the length of the cord to connect the two - or am I restricted to having them connected in the same row?

The AV cord from one unit to the other is 5' long. It won't be long enough to go from one row to another.

IF you wish to seat your kids in the back third row of a minivan, will those dvd players reach to the back of the middle seats also? I notice you have them on the back of the front seats.

I bought it at Target during black Friday sale. Regular was $180, and I got it on sale for $100.

When you said slave unit that made my day

Ok my question is does the sound coming off the speakers mess with your ears being right behind your head? Say i wanted to listen to the radio on the front speakers while the kids watch their movie in the back, would that work? They are still too young to wear head phones. Thanks!

9-12 v dc input but how many amps?

i wanted to buy this for our minivan and put one on the back of the passenger headrest and one on the back of the second row headrest. Do you think this is possible with the cords? what are the lengths and can they separate further like headphone cords?

Will there be an issue if i will strap the dvd on the backseat headrest for the rear facing car seat? Thanks in advance...

If you have a power socket near your third row then it's no problem. But the power cord should be long enough to go from front cigarette lighter to your second row seats. My concern with wires stringing from front to back is make sure your kids don't accidentally kick and rip it off the unit and damaging it. As for the interconnectioin between the 2 units, they must be mounted side by side as that AV cable won't reach between first row to second row.

im having a hard time installing the strap it keeps coming loose how did u strap it?

Does the picture stay steady when driving over uneven terrain. We camp a lot.

+dial2fast het can I use a ps3 or Xbox with these screens?

can games be played on the main monitor?

My kids don't wear headphones also, and having those players right behind your head, you willl hear the audio playing but I wouldn't say its irritatingly loud. Our minivan actually has factory audio mode where we can turn off the rear speakers, so we can listen to our own music. Sometimes we just turn off the radio. It might sound boring but it's a small price to pay for their peace and quiet.

do you leave them in your car all the time or just put them in when your going to use them?

Was wondering if I can use only one screen at a time for one child?

I have these TV's and my headrest tilts forward (2010 Scion xB) what I did to solve that problem was I strapped the straps in between the headrest and seat. So its strapped to the 2 silver prongs that pop out the headrest and go into the seat. This makes it a much more secure fit and the T.V. straps do not bother my head or the comfort of my headrest.

i can't get video to play on both screens. . only the main one plays video and sound and with the aux cable the second only plays sound. .. do you know if that yellow aux input makes a difference. . im not sure if i got ripped off but I'm pretty sure i did. . but do you know what is called and where i can find one asap

Is there a way to run the audio through the cars speakers?

I just purchase the same DVD dual player but having a problem when I plug the adapter to the car it doesn't work. Nothing on the screen it showing can it's be the volt on the car adapter? Everything is plug in correctly.

Wiggle the connector on the Cig-Lighter end as the contacts are quite rubbish on many cars. Also inside that end, there is a fuse. Take that apart carfully, over a towl so anything that falls out can be found easily.

This video was nothing but helpful... what is the purpose of giving it a thumbs down.... Geesh! Thanks for the your review sir! Very helpful.
