I can't play DVD on both. My remote doesn't have DVD-in. They look identical, not labeled A/B. Both have SD slot/USB, kickstand, square buttons in fr

You have to put the power plug into the dc spot on one and the other cord goes into dc out

I just figured my set out. Sylvania seems to change how these are made and operated even though they are the same model. The model I have has 2 totally identical units, and 1 remote control. The remote has a button labeled "source". This toggles the units between DVD and AV IN. Which ever you have cabled ( cable inserted AV IN) as unit B has to have AV IN toggled, Unit A AV OUT, and DVD selected it shows on the screen. How you have the dc cabled has no matter.

JHam88: Sorry for the delay! I only checked its function with still pictures. I like your question! I intend, in the next few days, to actually use the movie function with the remote. I would surmise that it will work, but sometimes we all get surprised when something logically should work but doesn't. So, my response to you is that I will actually try it in the next few days and will post for you through this question forum. I will retain the Amazon query and will get back to you. Thanks for piquing my interest. That is how we all learn isn't it? My Best and be back to you soon.. Bob

If the DVD had an hdmi port just use an hdmi.cable. Look into an rf modulator if it doesn't.

A 'quick' call to pioneer customer service (they will only answer in person if you claim not to have internet access, 1-800-421-1404 options 2, 3, 1, 2) generated a response that no, neither the DV-410V-K nor DV-49AV are designed to play DVD+R DL disks. Virtually all other media (R/RW, +/-, SL/DL) should play, but not that particular one. A pity really, nearly perfect in every other regard.

The ones I received are just DVD+R and were not compatible for my device, I could not use them.

This may be better researched on Wikipedia but the short version is there is no difference (some older players had compatibility issues but they should all be gone by now...+R was usually more compatible with more systems) You can use these as video, music and data storage.

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

That depends on your gaming system. You might have to ask Nintendo. I thought all gaming systems were the same not like DVD players.

Mary, these play both, with the added benefit of making most regular DVDs sharper than they ordinarily play as well. We've been really pleased with this aspect, as I hadn't realized this when I purchased it! Hope this helps!

I've played many moves on it but perhaps they've all been regular DVD. I know I've successfully burned many BluRays (for iTunes sharing to Apple TV, which is the primary reason I bought it) but when I just tried to play a BluRay on the computer (VLC Media Player installed Win8 Bootcamp on Mac Mini hardware) I got an error, so maybe there is an issue playing BluRays. I'll mess around with it and see if I can get it to work and let you know.

I have connected my Sony and Samsung DVDs to this as DLNA. I have found issues with both devices, but they seem to be on the device side, not the drive side. For example, the samsung Bluray will not pay things that the Sony does, and vice versa. It's quite annoying.

I wish I could help but I bought mine brand new on Amazon about a year and a half ago. The unit is a nice one and I have not had any problems with it. It plays all formats and getting a 5 or 6 dvd changer that also has HD upscaling is getting pretty hard to find.Realistically, I cannot see ANYONE selling a dvd player WITHOUT a remote since it is almost useless without it.

I am trying to use it for the DVD functions. I was merely pointing out that the buttons don't work for games neither.

Just bought the machine refurbished on ebay. It does play DVD+r disc. thanks.

It sounds like you need to just get a converter box that'll convert one to or from the other. They're usually available from most electronics/video stores.

Hello.. You can get a Pioneer VXX3218 DVD Remote Control on ebay. It works better than the little onethat can with the player. Better range and you can open the dvd drawer with this one. Should get it on ebay for around $10.00. Dave..410.00

It played Mp3 and I never tried a DVD+-R, The problem was it did not play some new Blu-Rays and kept an annoying wi-fi signal flashing on the screen at all times during movies. I returned it to the store and purchased a Samsung and it works fine.
