How to Buy a DVD Player

1. Make sure you know what range of car DVD players you can afford. Not every person is going to be able to afford or want the top of the range high end systems. Work out what price you can afford and than work out after that what in that price range you want. Don?t do it the other way round and buy something you can not afford.

2. Buy one that is not going to out date easy. Although I said only spend what you can afford, try to get a system that is going to be in the past and of no use in the future.

3. Make sure that you take test DVDs and CDs with you. Like ordinary DVD and CD player there are different formats that can be played on them, some of the different formats are DVD-R, DVD-RW, CD-R, CD-RW and more. Make sure that you take a DVD and CD disc that you have created at home so that you can test to see if the player you are buying is going to play them.

4. Make sure that you install a car DVD player in the right spot. Before you go ahead and have a DVD player installed in your car, make sure that you inspect it to find out where the best position is put it. Getting an expert opinion can be helpful too.

5. Getting a good quality antenna is also a recommended additive if you want to be able to watch television on the player. Diversity antennas or dual-antennas are specially designed for this and will give you crystal clear television while you are on the road.

6. If you have a small budget buying an all-in-one DVD player is a great choice. These units are simple to use and are very portable. An all-in-one in one unit normally comes with the DVD player, speakers and screen all in one unit.

7. However if you have quite a large budget and are going for a component system you will be looking at have multiple screens and most of the components will be separate. These component systems normally have the sound component played directly into the car stereo and the option to use headphones. You will also see that most of these systems will have screens in the back of seat headrests and ones that pop up out of the dashboard. These systems are quite complex so I recommend that if you get one you shop around and get an expert option.

8. Lastly make sure that the electronics of your car are going to be able to handle a DVD player or systems. You will need a professional to determine this for you.
