This stylish, modern RCA DVD player is sure to turn heads. The sleek, mirrored-silver design alone will make it an accent piece in any environment.

Digital PhotoView lets you enjoy digital photos on a television quickly and easily. Not only can favorite movies be watched on this DVD player, it will also decode and play MP3 files that are stored on CD-R or CD-RW discs.

 Good features, buggy player November 9, 2005
This player has some good features like disc memory, but that falls short of it's downside: it won't play very many discs all the way through. Many discs will pause for a few seconds or stop playing. You have to rewind the player prior to the point of the pause then let it play. At that point it will play fine. That gets really annoying when you have to do it 3-4 times during a movie. Like others I thought that it was the disc, but after a trip home and playing some dvd's there then on this player I realized it was the player, not the discs.
I purchased this one for about $80.00 and feel very ripped off. I just got a Memorex dvd player from Kmart for 35.00 and it beats the RCA player hands down. Avoid this one.
Poor remote idea November 5, 2005
The remote is dedicated to the player. This means the remote that comes with it is the only one that will work on it. The salesman said that it is a digital remote and that is why. I know this because the remote stopped working and I can't get another to control it. This means that if I want to control my perfectly good dvd player I need to get a new dvd player. Yes, I am lazy and don't want to have to get up to do ANYTHING with the player, that is what the remote is for! Know this if you are looking at this dvd player.
 Happy Customer September 9, 2004
I've had this DVD player for about a year now and have been completely satisfied with it. I don't have a fancy TV setup, nor surround sound, so to me "bells and whistles" aren't important... functionality and dependability are. And this player hasn't disappointed.
Soon after buying the unit I DID have problems playing certain DVDs, for reasons I still don't understand. However, after checking the RCA customer service website, I went through their Troubleshooter procedure, and it was recommended to try "soft" resetting the unit, which is accomplished with an easy button combo between the remote and the unit itself. I tried... the result? Played the problem DVD's perfectly. These DVD's still occasionally do not read, but resetting the unit in this manner has worked every time.
Some may see that as a hassle... and I guess in a way it is... but it happens VERY rarely, and is corrected in a matter of seconds (and hey, I've got to get up to put the DVD in anyways, so it's not like it's costing me extra energy).
Other than that I have had no problems with it. DBD's play well (other than a couple odd balls), audio CD's play well (including self-made CD-R's), the remote is full-functioned and simple.
All in all.... nice looking affordable, well-made, and dependable product.
GOod stuff.
 Major problems with this DVD player April 1, 2004
After reading the reviews for this DVD player, I decided to write a review because I have had the same problems as other reviewers. Certain DVDs play fine in this DVD player, yet others skip or have sound interruptions during the movie - since I bought a new DVD player, I have had no problems with these same DVDs at all!
Junk--avoid products made by Thomson/RCA December 8, 2003
This DVD player is junk. I have had several movies that will not play in it. I lived with that. Now it plays through perhaps 10 to 20 minutes of an audio CD and just shuts off mid-disc. RCA/Thomson customer service website and phone help is a joke. It is beyond the 3-month replacement warranty period so I must pay $50 charge to have it replaced, plus $10 or more to shipping. I will never buy anything made by Thomson again. They build poor quality products and then, even when problems are widespread, they do not stand behind them.
