RCA DRC612N 7" Portable DVD Player

Summary: Not recommended
Review: I purchased this RCA product over a year ago, and I am very disappointed in it. The picture will freeze during the movie, followed by a tracking noise like the laser is looking for the track. It will often skip scenes. Since the product is over a year old, I don't think it is worth repairing (probably cost more to repair than replace, and I don't want to replace it with the same product). I purchesed a Minitek portable DVD player for my daughter at about 2/3 the price, and it works much better. I agree with the first reviewer. I, too, will never buy another RCA/Thompson product.

Summary: Beware - This unit has no Warranty
Review: My unit failed after using it three times over a 2 month period. I emailed RCA, they told me to call Thomson (a long distance call) to handle this warranty claim. I was told after 25 minutes on the phone that, even though I have a 90 day warranty, it wasn't covered. I now have a $350.00 paper weight. You decide for yourself, but I shall no longer purchase any RCA products.

Summary: Plays store bought dvds fine but not anything burned
Review: This is a nice dvd player as far as the picture and sound goes. It will play store bought dvds fine but anything that was burned on a dvd recorder whether it was a dvd-r or dvd+r, it would freeze and skip and sometimes get confused. This upset me as the box says it will play DVD-r/rw and DVD+r/rw but I never had any luck.
I returned this after a week of checking out what dvds would play on it and bought a Panasonic 7 inch DVD-LS50 model that will play anything that I have burned on a dvd recorder as that is what I want to watch on it as well as the store bought dvds.

Summary: most excellent!
Review: this is one nice little machine. thin, lightweight and easy to use. the screen is very sharp, excellent quality picture....i also bought a mintek 1770 and the picture quality of the rca was much better. on the mintek you could see the horizontal lines...but the rca.....its even hard to make it out up close!!!....the sound quality on the rca is good not great...but good.....much better than the mintek....the speakers and the volume can also go much higher than any model ive tried. the battery back snaps onto the bottom so it does make the unit a little thicker....but this way....there isnt a battery clump on the back....there is s video output...analog outputs/inputs and a car adapter, anaolog wires and the s video cable was included......ive had it for about a month now and it works like the day i bought it! i even dropped it once and it still plays like new! beautiful machine! highly recommended
