You can watch 2 dvd's at the same time...or you can watch 1 on both tv's...I took my car to an audio place to have them installed due to the fact I didnt have time to dk it myself...they work great though

1. There is a DVD player in each headrest so they will need to watch different videos without additional wiring. 2. This set includes most everything for installation. You will need a fused power source close to your seats, butt connectors, electrical tape. Find someone that is experience to help during the install if you are at all concerned about this. I wouldn't want you to buy something you don't get to use. 3. You do not have to go through the stereo system. This set includes wireless headphones (you need batteries) for the audio.

I have posted a similar question. I just like to know if plays all the old format DVD's. I'm only interested playing all my DVD's. I have a Pnasonic 42" TV. (Not 1080) 2 years old that I love.

They are both DVD players, they can play a separate move on each or you play play on one and watch on both. Sound is independent of each other so if watching differant movie the sound will match the movie being played. If a movie is played on one and watched on both the sound is matched to both players.

You need to check on the packaging if she refers to CD or DVD. There are the two options.I bought DVD. The quality is excellent. The impression on the surface of the DVD is excellent. You can purchase you won't regret it, but check the specifications. Do you want to buy CDs or DVDs? Note before you buy.

Thank you, Paul! I have the disc and the "Quick Setup Guide", but don't seem able to play certain DVD's.

Thanks Dale --That sounds great! Almost too easy to be true? I guess the big hang up with those old camcorders was getting the video onto a PC, connections, storage space, firewire's, etc.... I just want to put them on a dvd so this sounds like it would work for me. It is just home video of the kids growing up so top image quality isn't really a concern. The only other question is, what do you think the 'playability' of the recorded disc would be on devices going forward, meaning our PC, parents PC, whatever dvd player we have, etc.....? Any special type of disc to ensure compatability with multiple devices?If I spend hours converting but then can't watch, I haven't really accomplished anything. Thanks Dale --That sounds great!

Hello, Here are the steps to set the region to the correct setting. 1. Turn on the dvd player 2. at the icon screen, press the "setup" icon 3. Then press 5555 on the remote control ( this will bring you to the region page ) 4. Press the Blue ENT button on the remote until the region setting goes to " 1 " 5. Press the Power button to turn the unit off 6. restart the unit and play the dvds. To connect the two dvd players together so that you can play the same dvd on both, you will need to connect the AV inputs and outputs between the 2 players using rca AV cables. Once connected, you can play a dvd in one unit, then press the "AV" icon on the other unit and it will pick up the signal from the first dvd player. Then simply press the AV icon again to go back to normal use. If you have any other questions or issues, Please feel free to email us.

Hi Tamara. No, only the main unit plays the DVD. The other one is basically a slave the runs off the video signal of the main unit (via a cable). The "slave" can't even power up unless the main unit is turned on as well.

My Unit never played DVDs from the beginning. Never played DVDs from the box. I thought it was a region code issue but it is not. Then I though it was an Firmware issue so I upgraded from V26 to V29. Still does not play DVDs. I bought it from Amazon LLC directly. If I would have found out this after I purchased the unit, I would have gave Amazon a piece of my mind. But it's too late now as a couple years has gone by. Please learn from my mistake. I bought a VERY EXPENSIVE CD Player (Philips HTS8100/37).

I dont know we had our installed in our Ford Van. I do have a problem with it though. The DVD doesnot work well. It doesn't play all DVD's I bought about 5 new DVD's but only one will actually play on it, it plays a few of our old ones also, its not the DVD tapes it the player. Just can't figure out why only some even new ones will play in it and not others. Also it is a real inconvenience that there is not clock on it when you are listening to the radio and so on. I wish we had not bought it.

You shouldn't have to change it. Ours changed automatically when we put in those types of discs. Try unplugging then plug back in. Then put the dvd back in and try again.

I just purchased this unit and have been researching the same thing. One thing I've found is that you need a "Video Enhancer" to attach to your unit. You can't use it when dubbing from the VHS-DVD or DVD-VHS within the unit; you will need a separate VHS and DVD player to attach to the 610 and run the video enhancer between the two. I'm still researching, but have found decent reviews about some companies (Grex, Sima (from World Imports), Video Filter). I'll post more info when I finally decide which one to choose and why.

My question is to anyone out there. I'm experiencing the same old problem I've come to expect with DVD players - they eventually - sometimes the next day or two - get to where they refuse to play an increasing number of discs. Present Sylvania VHS/DVD combo has lasted 2 years, but is beginning to skip and refuse more discs. Is this Sony or another player the best bet for playing all discs? Most of the refused discs show no signs of damage to my eyes. Thanks much!

It's supposed to play both, however after six months mine stopped playing regular dvds and will now only read blu-ray. It is also SUPER SLOW to load. You'd be better off getting one of the new quick loading ones. You can put a blu-ray in this one, go to the kitchen, make dinner, come back, and it still might not be done getting ready. Especially with newer discs that need a downloaded update to the machine's software.

I know for a fact that certain dvd players playback a certain dvds base on the format recorded. Your literature for your dvd player will usually tell you this. As for some computers being able to play back your DVDs and other computers won't, it may be the same reason as mentioned. I've never had problems playing my DVDs on multiple computers. However when I purchased these "Sony" DVD+R media, I was not able to use them. My HP desk top computer did not recognize them. FYI: It was after 30 days that I received my order, I could not return them, and there for I gave them to Goodwill.

It depends completely upon the DVD you are trying to play in a loop! You can set the "loop" function, but roughly half of the DVDs in our (large) collection just go to the end of the first play and stop, ignoring the "loop" or "repeat" setting. That's the reality, despite what some will say below. And it doesn't depend on the DVD manufacturer, either. Believe me, my wife and I have tried for a few years to get DVDs to play in a loop, and it is NOT a reliable feature with some DVDs. We separate the "will loop" and "won't loop" on the shelf next to the TV, if we want to leave something playing on and on. Luckily, a few of our favorite movies loop forever (unless there's a power failure)! It depends completely upon the DVD you are trying to play in a loop!

Where did you by the sound drivers and how much?I finally got mine working but before Brian's post. He is correct' as best I can tell, and the problem rests with our computer software. I purchased a " DVD Decoder" download load on line from Roxio (I paid $20.98 but you can get it for a one time only down load for about $15 -if that is what you want). It now plays DVD movies and installs software which is what I wanted. I uninstalled the Hero program from my computer. Happy with the results but I only wish that I had been able to read Brian James post before I purchased the fix.
