Amazon.com Product Description:When you are looking for more than just a portable DVD player, try the SD-P5000 from Toshiba. This lightweight, on-the-go DVD player with a 15-inch LCD display also features a built-in television with a home-theater-quality picture. The SD-P5000 is loaded with features and delivers crisp, realistic visuals with rich surround sound.
The DVD player in the SD-P5000 provides a crystal-clear picture with its enhanced digital processing. Since the display screen is directly connected to the DVD player, you get a pure digital signal from your DVDs. The SD-P5000 uses digital cinema progressive scanning (3:2 pulldown) to reproduce your DVDs in vivid, theaterlike clarity.
You can take full advantage of that picture clarity with the versatile digital picture zoom option, which lets you magnify a portion of the picture onscreen while in freeze-frame mode or even while watching a DVD in real time. The feature is great for spotting details in movies or even adjusting letterboxed movies to fill your screen. The SD-P5000 also features a wide array of DVD features, including multiple angle selection, a fast-scan option that allows you to fly through DVDs, and slow-motion viewing.
The SD-P5000 features 3D virtual surround sound through its built-in speakers and easy-to-connect, multichannel optical digital audio output. The player has two headphone jacks so you can share your DVD viewing with a friend.
The SD-P5000 plays DVDs, DVD-Rs, and CDs, so you can enjoy all your favorite videos and music. You can also play MP3s and view digital JPEG photos from CDs created in your computer.
This portable DVD player can go anywhere. The double-hinged design allows for the player to be wall-mounted as well as portable. The optional internal battery can run the player for up to 2.5 hours, and can be easily recharged between viewings in about four hours. A DC power cord is included so you can use the SD-P5000 in the car.

Wonderful Quality
This is a great tv I got it for my son in the Explorer. It is a little heavy however but the quality of the picture more than makes up for it. The sounds is great too. It has a screen protector that has come in very handy and a remote controll. For the price it is a steal. THanks for a great way to travel.

Excellent "portable" TV/DVD
Okay, it isn't really that portable, as in "airplane-friendly portable" - it IS a bit large. But if you want a smaller, "MORE portable" TV/DVD as a second set in the house, this baby really cannot be beat. The model I have has an excellent display, true scan LCD. And, it is TOUGH, to boot - it actually fell off an 18" high table onto a brick floor with absolutely no damage save a scratch on the end. Mostly luck, I suppose, but also built-in durability. Too bad about the battery, if true...

it might have been a nice unit
I originally bought this as a gift thinking it would be great to have a small LCD TV for my husband's desk and a portable DVD player for traveling. Problem is they no longer make the "optional battery pack" as advertized so it really isn't portable. You could get a better quality LCD TV for a lot less then this unit which doesn't do as Toshiba claims

Great Picture and Very Portable
I find this unit is well built and it has an excellent picture with a good quality signal source in. While a tad heavy relative to what you would guess while looking at it, I transport it easily in a 15"H x 3"W x 18"L padded portfolio laptop-styled carry bag and use it mostly on my boat. I have had no trouble playing any DVD's in it and they too present a very fine picture. I suspect another reviwer who complains got a bad sample or lacks a decent antenna system or signal source in. I don't have his problems and have compared the picture directly and favorably to my high quality large Sony TV picture with a satillite signal into each and adjusting distance for each. A very nice unit.

Big, but bad
Pros>>>
- Big Screen
- Great sound
- Versitile positioning options
- Great connectivity options
Cons>>>
- Very poor screen resolution. Everything is pixelated and fuzzy (not good when you're expecting a DVD quality picture)
- Very heavy. I expected it to be somewhat heavy given the screen size, but it's quite a bit bigger than I expected. Much bigger and heavier than my 3 year old notebook
- Won't play DVD-R's. Despite what it says, I tried 5 different movies recorded on DVD-R's and none of them worked. They all work on all 4 DVD players I have in my house, but none of them work on the this thing.
- Brightness bars at the top and bottom of the screen are very apparent in low light conditions. The overall screen brightness is great, but it's overpowering at the top and bottom of the screen. Adjustmenst fix it somewhat, but it's impossible to get rid of completely.
- When the disc is spinning up at startup it sounds like a muffled lawn mower. Very loud. During play it's not noticeable though.
Final notes:
Screen size and sound is great. It's not a very portable device though due to it's weight and clunkiness. My biggest gripe and the reason I won't keep it is the picture quality. It's poor at best and not even close to what a DVD sourced picture should be. If you want a big screen and a device that will connect to anything (tons of I/O ports) at the cost of portability and picture quality this is for you. It however, is not for me.
