Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you're traveling cross-country or want to show your DVDs at a friend's house across town, the Mintek MDP-1720 portable DVD player is an all-in-one, easy-to-carry entertainment solution with a slim profile (it's less than an inch thick). It plays DVDs, Video CDs (VCDs), CDs (including recordable and rewriteable CDs), MP3 discs, and Kodak Picture CDs, and features a bright, 7-inch TFT (active-matrix) color LCD display in 16:9 widescreen format. It can be connected to a television, and when connected to a compatible audio system can bring the soundtrack to life with Dolby Digital audio.

Designed for easy use on the road, the MDP-1720 includes a high-capacity rechargeable lithium battery pack and has a built-in antishock system that helps prevent annoying interruptions. It features both built-in stereo speakers and a headphone jack for private listening (headphones not included), as well as a wireless remote control for use across the room, such as when connected to a TV. With the unit connected to an amplifier, you can use it as a karaoke machine (with karaoke discs). It supports multiple audio language tracks and multilingual subtitles, and lets you select from multiple camera angles on DVDs that give you those options. Among its other key features are six-mode picture zoom, four-speed slow motion, fast forward and reverse search, chapter preview ("digest") mode, random play, and repeat play (useful for tradeshows or demonstrations).

The MDP-1720 gives you S-video and composite-video output, analog stereo and optical digital (S/PDIF) audio output, and a headphone jack.

1 out of 5 stars Really 0 stars.......2007-01-26

I bought this in 2004 and rarely used it. Virtually not used, sat in my bedroom for a while. Stored properly in a cool, dry place in a case. Now, when I need it, it simply does not work. Don't waste your money on this piece of crap. First one I bought in 2004 was defective and returned. Still have my receipt from a reputable store and all original packaging. May try to return it again, despite the time frame.

4 out of 5 stars A sweet little unit!.......2004-11-24

First, a correction to Amazon's description: this player does *not* offer S-video output, unfortunately. Composite video is all you get. On the other hand, a feature not mentioned in the description is that you can feed composite video *into* this player, and hence use it as a 7" video display screen! That could be very handy for reviewing your camcorder movies...though if you're shooting in 4:3 (normal) mode, the picture will be a little stretched on the MDP-1720's 16:9 screen.

One other error: Amazon's technical description states "Frame advance: No," but in fact this player does support frame advance--you simply press the pause button repeatedly to step forward frame by frame. Can't go backward, though.

As to general performance: everything works fine, and the picture is excellent on the LCD screen. Sound from the built-in stereo speakers lack bass, but that's to be expected with any player this size. Sound through the headphone jack, on the other hand, is excellent.

Construction is impressively solid, and the ultra-slim aluminum case is a pleasure to behold--very similar in feel and appearance to Apple's classy Titanium PowerBooks. Travelers, and in particular RVers, will be pleased to know that this comes with both a 120VAC adapter and a 12VDC adapter.

All in all, it's easy to see why this was one of only two models recommended by Consumer Reports in a recent test of seven portable DVD players (CR, December 2004, p. 28)--coming in just slightly behind a Sony player that sells for $500!

3 out of 5 stars portable dvd player.......2004-09-18

I bought this for my sons to watch when we take long trips. It worked great for about a year. It now stops or freezes about half way through a movie. I called the manufacture but since I didn't buy the extended warranty I would have to pay them to just look at it and they wanted way too much to even look at it.

5 out of 5 stars Served well in Iraq.......2004-08-26

I personally know 3 people that had this unit in Iraq and swear by this player. I just got my orders for an 18 month tour in Iraq and I have just ordered mine. If this can survive in Iraq with the dust and 120 degree tempuratures it will serve you well on car trips.

5 out of 5 stars real nice for the money.......2004-07-24

I bought this on a whim before a long trip, I was worried about the name. I had read mixed reviews, but then again I read mixed reviews on all brands. This player is wonderful, clear, nice sound with headphones. Wish it was a little louder without headphones though. We are real happy with it, remote control allows you to do just about everything but volume control. What else more can you expect for the price?
