Jensen DVD player

Have a 5th wheel with a Jensen DVD player causing me lots of frustration. When playing a DVD, it will freeze/stall, pushing the forward, reverse button will not work. The DVD has to be ejected and reinserted. I keep the DVD on fast forward, past the point of it sticking, to watch the DVD. I initially thought it was the DVD disk. I played the DVD in my home and there was no problem. Has anyone experienced this problem with the Jensen DVD equipment and if so, how did you fix the problem? I've been informed Jensen DVD/stereo systems are bottom of the list and should consider replacing it.

    Very good advice. They've gotten so cheap now, no reason not too. I got a nice small LG Blue Ray last Christmas for the trailer for around $70. Probably cheaper now.

    Jensen is generally considered junk. Get a Samsung, Sony, etc. Lots of good DVD players out there.
