Aldi portable DVD player - input/output question

    Portable DVD player for €79.99 in Aldi next Thursday, and I have a dumbass question. biggrin.gif

    It includes an AV cable and says 'AV input/output jack' [my emphasis]. Now, does this mean that it's not purely for connecting it to a TV set for playback — i.e. output — but that I would also be able to connect a portable HDD media player and play back the files on the DVD player's screen? The DivX (etc.) files on the player are converted by it to an AV signal for display on any ol' TV or monitor, so presumably they should play back on this too ...or no?

    [Mods, this is also posted over in Bargain Alerts — more traffic, mebbe a little less expertise(?) Please feel free to delete whichever is in the inappropriate forum...]

    yeah the cable will work as both input or output, dependng on what is connected to it.

    there is usually a switch on the player to control what is viewed, the dvd or the video input.
