Portable DVD Player Compatable with iPod touch?

Does anyone know of a portable DVD player compatible with iPod touch that has a reasonable battery life? Philips makes a portable DVD player - the DCP 851 - that has an iPod touch dock, but the battery life is only 2.5 hrs. There are several other portable DVD players out there with substantially longer battery lives (Panasonic has one with a 13 hr. battery life), but generally they don't seem to be compatible with an iPod (most appear to only have A/V input through a mini jack, and I can't seem to find an iPod-to-mini jack converter). Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It will only require that you change the security and password on your other devices. Apple devices work much better with WPA, and WPA is far more secure than WEP.
It should be relatively simple to re-configure the router's wireless security to use WPA2 or WPA Personal security. WPA passwords do not require any special characters like WEP does. Once you re-configure the router all you need do is make the appropriate changes in your other devices to use WPA security and enter the new password.

  • Power charger compatibility with ipod touch 3 gen

    I have an ipod classic that came with one of the USB/dock power chargers about 5 years ago.
    I had a look at the ipod touch 3rd gen & it apparently isn't compatible with that charger - 1 gen & 2 gen are, but not 3 gen. So is there a charger that will work, or can you get a different USB/dock cable to use for the ipod touch?

    There are third-party chargers. Just do a Google search. Or you can buy a charger from Apple's Online Store.

  • Using a 80 gig iPod Classic with a Phillips DCP750 Portable DVD Player

    This weekend I almost purchased the Phillips DCP750 portable DVD player, but after reading some of the discussions posted here, I am doubtful it will work with the 80 gig iPod Classic I bought last month. Does anyone know if there is a way to make this work or if there is another portable DVD player that will work with my iPod? If I purchase a universal dock from Apple, will this let me change the settings on the iPod so it will work? And which cables would I purchase to connect my iPod to a TV? I am somewhat disappointed that it is apparently so difficult to hook the 80 gig Classic up to a bigger screen to watch downloaded movies, TV shows, video, etc. I might have settled for the smaller Nano if I had know this would be such a hassle.
    I would appreciate any information anyone can give me on this.

    1. How likely is it that Apple will fix this issue with future firmware releases?
    No-one here could even hazard a guess. We're just users like yourself. Do Philips claim this DVD player is compatible? Isn't it the responsibility of the makers of the DVD player to ensure it works with the Classic?
    2. Are other 3rd party devices (i.e. Docks, Automobiles, etc.) affected by this firmware release?
    Yes. Almost all older 3rd party accessories don't work with the Classic. There have been many posts about such issues both here and other iPod forums.
    3. Is there any way to go back to firmware release 1.0.2? I know backing off firmware releases is possible with the iPhone.
    This may be of help but you have to have the previous version still on your computer.
    Remove the latest update from the iTunes/iPod updates folder.
    In Windows XP but I think it's found in "Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates."
    Then prevent iTunes from checking the internet for a new update (preferences/general and remove the check mark from "check for updates automatically), then click restore. Or simply disconnect your modem from the computer.
    Then restore the iPod.
    You should then be asked if you want to use the previous version of the iPod software.

  • I created a iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DVD RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

    I created an iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DV+RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

    Probably because they don't accept that media.
    Try using Verbatim DVD+DL (if your project exceeds 2 hours) or Verbatim DVD-R if it doesn't.

  • Portable DVD Player with iPhone 5 Dock

    I have a RCA portable DVD player that has a docking station for the iPhone 4 and other models with the 30 pin connector. I have upgraded to the iPhone 5 with the 8 pin connector. I thought that the 30 pin to 8 pin converter cable would work or the HDMI connector cable but neither did. Does anyone know if there is a portable DVD player that has the docking station for the iPhone 5?

    Hi Have  a look for D V D Player with Bluetooth or a 3.5 plug to fit your headphones, socket on iphone. Cheers Brian

  • Portable DVD player with Iphone support?

    Im looking for a portable DVD player that I could also plug in my Iphone and watch the movies in the DVD screen. Anyone know of any brands out there that can do that?

    Well there is a Video "Out" cable you can buy for the iPhone (component or composite). With that cable you can do video out to a screen with matching (component or composit hookups depending what you bought) to it's Video/Audio "In"
    Here is a link to the component cable

  • Anyone else finding fault with the sony DVP-FX980 portable dvd player related to the plastic latch ?

    DVP-FX980
    design flaw: latch mechanism falls out renders unit unuseable. this is my second experience with this problem. warranty of 90 days isn't enough to cover. I am sure others have had this same experience since I've seen it twice now.

    I'm sorry to know you have this issue on your portable DVD player. We always post known issues of Sony products on our Esupport website and this is not one of them. 

  • Can you connect 5th generation i-pod to portable dvd player

    I have recently purchased an Amstrad portable dvd player and was wondering if it is possible to view my saved movies from my i-pod video onto my portable dvd player. Was told by local shop it wasn't as you only had option of audio and not video. The portable dvd player came supplied with cables to watch movies through the portable player and onto a tv

    A portable DVD player normally only has OUTPUT jacks and would not have a reason to support input jacks. So there would be no place to INPUT your iPod signals.
    So the first question is, does the portable DVD player have actual INPUT ports?

  • Possible bug found in Mac Os X Tiger 10.4.11 in conjuction with iPod Touch

    Dears,
    I think I've found a possible bug in Mac Os X version 10.4.11 in conjunction with iPod Touch.
    When the iPod is connected during boot, my Bluetooth hardware fails to be detected. When I restart the portable without the iPod connected, my Bluetooth hardware is recognised & activated again. It is reproduceable.
    1. Attach iPod Touch before starting the MacBook Pro
    2. Boot the Macbook
    3. Bluetooth hardware should be rendered inoperative
    Restore functionality:
    1. Detach the iPod Touch
    2. Reboot the portable
    3. Bluetooth hardware is restarted / recognised.
    Regards
    Cedric

  • Connecting to portable DVD player help.

    When I connect my 5G 30gb iPod to my portable DVD player (single mini plug) all I get on the player are intermittent horizontal white lines. No sound, no picture.
    Yes, I have checked the video output settings on the iPod.
    What could be wrong?

    As long as your DVD player accepts the plugs on your cable all you have to do is hook up the white plug to the audio. If you have a plug that looks more like a mini headphone plug then you can get an adaptor to make the RCA plug on your cord become a mini plug. Still, you should be able to just plug in the one audio plug and get sound. Same as I do on my TV that only has mono.

  • Whatsapp compatible with ipod touch 4g?

    excuse me,i want ask
    whatsapp compatible with ipod touch 4g ios 5 or not?
    please answer

    About a yea and a half ago the developer updated the app. The update including dropping compatibility with the iPod touch.  Thus, the updated app can't install on an iPod. However, the previous revision continued to work on the iPod, at least for iOS 4.x.  Users have reported that the previous version did not work with iOS 5.

  • Faulty battery back NP-FX110 for portable DVD Player DVP-FX930

    My daughters portable dvd player has a separate battery pack. She went to try and plug it in and realized that the battery pack case had exploded popping it open as one of the cells had blown up like a bag of microwave popcorn. Not only is this a serious saftey hazard, it has rendered the unit useless. Have found numerous reports of similar issues in a websearch. Am wondering if Sony can offer an solutions - a new battery pack would solve our issue but even the part doesn't appear to be available any longer which is disappointing as this was not an inexpensive unit and it is less than 4 years old with very light usage. I would have expected it to last much longer.

    Thank you for your reply and I appreciate the timeliness but conversely I followed your directions to the "T" and have not received a response is almost a week.  I find this not only aggravating but unacceptable.  Below is the email that I sent to your people.  Maybe you can help or expedite this process. 
    Thank you,
    My children's portable DVD player (model # DVP-FX930) (Serial # 09AG S01-6220746-D) purchased on 7/19/2009 at a price of $179.00 before tax has a separate battery pack (model # NP-FX110).  My daughter went to use the unit and realized that the battery pack case had exploded popping it open as one of the cells had blown up like a bag of microwave popcorn. I have attached pictures of evidence.  Not only is this a serious safety hazard, it has rendered the unit useless. Upon investigation through web searches, I have found numerous reports of similar issues. I have been purchasing Sony devices all my life and have never had an issue with any of the products in the past. I understand that the limited lifetime warranty expires on parts after 1 year but in this situation, we as the consumer have taken very good care of this product and the battery obviously became defective.  With what I have explained and the seriousness of potential injury from this defect, I believe that this may fall under a recall or different circumstance outside of a limited warranty.  I would like to know what solutions Sony can offer at this time?
    Thank you in advance and I look forward to hearing from you.

  • Quality Portable DVD Player

    The iDVD slideshows I've made look great on my television, but when I play them on my portable DVD player they look really bad. The picture quality just isn't there on the portable screen.
    Can anyone recomend a quality portable DVD player that works well with iDVD.
    Photoscene

    Hi P
    Don't think it is Your portable.
    How to test ? Try a commercial DVD movie.
    Still bad - You got a bad player
    Good - You observed the diffrernce of play-back a DVD on a CRT-TV resp LCD (flat) screen. Nothing easy to do but:
    - Make Your movies less than 60 min and select - BEST PERFORMANCES -
    - Best quality is for > 60 min and < 120 min movies and the quality is
    not as good as above.
    To get even better quality You might first:
    - make a disk image and burn it with Apple Disk util tool at lower speed (x1 - 4)
    - I have observed that the quality degrades if You have less than 20Gb free space
    on the internal hard disk (where this work should be done)
    or
    Buy DVD Studio pro ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) Huh !!

  • Problems with Ipod Touch

    Problems with iPod Touch.
    Hi, I bought an ipod touch in Colombia a couple of months ago but lost the invoice, I tried using it but everytime I connect the iPod to the computer, it restarts over and over again, I've tried all the recommendations show in the Apple support site, but no method has proved the question is, I can take this ipod to a Mac store in the U.S. for repair or change.
    I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it.
    Thanks in advance for your quick response

    You should be able to go to the USA for warrantee service. If you purchased at an Apple store you should be able to go to your account in iTunes and see the purchase. I am confused by your statement:
    "I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it."
    If you go to the Venezuela apple website you can see if/where there are Apple stores.

  • Help on syncing multiple calendars with iPod Touch 4g 64g

    In our university, we use iCal with Blackboard. Also, our main *email* is Entourage - pretty sure it's the most recent version for Mac. 
    How can we sync the Entourage calendar with iCal, and be sure that they are all merged and 2-way functional for the iPod touch and laptops (I know for multiple computers we'll have to set up home sharing - for now let's just focus on the calendar syncing). 
    I have instructions for syncing Entourage with iPod Touch, and it's been recommended to use Google to sync with iCal (thanks llllass) but we don't want to use Google or MobileMe to get to iCal.  iCal is already built into the iPod Touch, as I'm sure you know.
    Any advice on how to make this super simple?
    Thanks in advance.

    My first suggestion is to try Stanza, as it is a much more configurable ebook reader.  You can use the
    Calibre (ebook management/conversion utility) to transfer ebooks from your computer to your iPod Touch.
    <http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30657/calibre>
    Looking at iBooks on my iPod Touch, my font selection and font size are only present when I have an ebook open.  If I tap the center of a page, the top edge of the screen has
    Library | Table of Contents | Brightness | aA (font size, and font selection) | Search | Bookmark
    Where the aA icon brings up a control that has a small a and a large A.  If I tap on the large A, each tap increases the font size until it gets REALLY BIG.  Tapping on teh small a reduces the font size for each tap.
    Landscape lock.  OK for the iPod Touch as a whole, you put the iPod Touch in the orientation you desire, then you quick double-tap on the home button.  This will bring up a list of your running apps.  Now slide the list to the right, and you will see music controls as well as on the far left a screen lock button.  Tap the screen lock button to lock your iPod Touch in its current orientation.  Unlock it later when you want your iPod Touch to be able to rotae again.
    NOTE:  Stanza as an ebook reader, it has its own configuration control that locks Stanza into a specific orientation, independent of the iPod Touch orientation or the iPod Touch orientation lock.  Another reason I like Stanza.
    Wallpaper.  I think you can only change it to something else.  Settings -> Wallpaper, then tap on the screen you want to change.  Now select a different Wallpaper from either the Wallpaper selections, or anything in your Camera Roll, or your Photo Library.
