The item comes with a car charger but no way to put the item hanging in the car. It also says that it has a remote but there is no remote inside the package. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dependable and Hardy *by A***R on June 20, 2017* I bought it for my special needs son. It's pretty durable to withstand his rough handling. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Useful for many things but not for mp3 on CD/DVD. *by R***Y on February 22, 2016* Product reviews can be cross-posted on other products so let me say that this is a review of a recently purchased (Feb 2016) refurbished Sylvania SDVD7040B portable DVD/MP3 audio and video player.I ordered a refurb for $21. It looks to be new. I bought it to play mp3 from CD but it won't really do that. That was a major disappointment but since it cost so little, I'll keep it for the other things it can do. For mp3 files on an optical disc (optical = CD or DVD), it will only go into its "browser mode." The "browser mode" is severely limited. In that "browser mode," you can view the files and you can select one to play, but you can't go fast forward and you can't go fast backward. Isn't that wierd? So, for mp3 on an optical disc, you can play a file but it must start at the beginning and play to the end of the file. That's rough on me since I use mp3 mostly for audiobooks and audio podcasts. I'll often need to re-enter the file at the spot where I left off in a 38 minute file but that browser mode won't let me fast forward to pick up where I left off.Most of my stuff is archived on CD and DVD so this little Sylvania SDVD7040B player really let me down. Now that I go back to look at the operator's instruction pdf, I see that it does exclude mp3 from optical disc features. It's just so inconspicuous I didn't catch it. I've used many digital devices but I have never experienced this discrepancy. I just didn't expect it.However, if you put those same files on a flash drive, it will then allow you to choose what it calls its "music mode" for rendering the files and you can then select a file, and play it, or fast forward it, or fast reverse it, and whatever. It will go forward and reverse up to 32x and that's useful for getting back to where I left off last time.It doesn't show any metadata information (ID3 and such). It does display 16 characters of a file name. Strangely, though, it sorts according to the DOS 8.3 file name that Windows hides from you. So, when you load your flash drive up with files using your computer, your list of files on the flash drive will be properly alphabetized in Windows because Windows is showing you the long file name using the Joliet file naming scheme. But, when you insert that flash drive into this Sylvania SDVD7040B, the files list will be jumbled up and out of sequence. That's because the Sylvania will be sorting the files according to the DOS 8.3 file name that Windows hides from you. The Sylvania will show you the first 16 characters of your Windows long file name but it has sorted the files according to the DOS file name and they will be out of sequence as a result.You can fix this with free 3rd party software. My Honda car has a similarly afflicted media player so I discovered a work around a long time ago. The one I like is called DriveSort v 1.223 . You put the files on your flash drive then run DriveSort to fix the short DOS file names to correspond with the long Joliet file names of the files on your flash drive. DriveSort will show you the DOS file names. You must sort each folder separately using this utility. You old DOS people remember the tilde?You can avoid this problem altogether if you rename all your files with DOS 8.3 file names but who wants to do that? I don't. My archived podcasts have file names that are over 150 characters long so that the topics, hosts, guests, and other information are all in the file name for me to search and browse. I'll keep the file names as they are. I'll put them on the flash drive. I'll use DriveSort to rename the short name to match the alphabetical order of the long file names. Then, the little Sylvania SDVD7040B will show me the files in proper order and play them in proper order. It will only show me the first 16 characters of the long file name, though.The flash drive port is USB 1.1 but that's good enough for what you need to do. It's got a SD slot. But, that means old-style SD where the limitation was 2GB. I haven't tried any SD cards in the player so I don't know if it can do SDHC or SDXC. I haven't had time to test the flash drive size capability. I know that I'm using 8GB SanDisk Cruzers that have a little over 5.3GB on each and the player is having no difficulty addressing and playing files from them.The instruction manual says it will do XviD video. It actually works with DivX and XviD. It doesn't care. I have tried XviD, DivX, and DX50 FourCC codes and they work fine from both optical disc and flash drive. This Sylvania SDVD7040B must have been made before the disputes ruined our lives. (Note that current LG players, however, will only do XviD and that means they will NOT do DivX unless you use a software utility to change the FourCC to xvid.) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/22536115-sylvania-sdvd7040b-rb-7-swivel-screen-portable-dvd-player](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/22536115-sylvania-sdvd7040b-rb-7-swivel-screen-portable-dvd-player) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
