    smart tv/no dvd player

    We recently purchased a new Transcend travel trailer. We assumed but were amazed to find that the tv did not come with a dvd player. It does have a smart tv and we do subscribe to hulu, netflix and peacock. My husband and I are not tech savvy in the least. Please advise if I am correct in thinking these are my choices. Buy a compact dvd player (very limited space). Or purchase some kind of wifi service that can be used at campsites (if there is such a thing). We are wanting to watch an occasional movie or listen to CD's. I have found dvd players in the range of $40 - $60 dollars. Have no idea how much wifi would cost us. There may be another alternative that we "un-tech savvy" people dont know about. Any ideas?

    Does your 2400bh have a DVD player in the radio?

    Funny haven’t tried it yet. Dealer told me it wasn’t. Have you put a tv in the bedroom? If so what size and mount?

    No tv in bedroom. Our last trailer didn’t have a tv and it is unlikely this one will ever be turned on

    I'm guessing your rig has an AM/FM/ radio with CD player? If so, that likely doubles as a DVD player. If it's anything like our Imagine, the radio is AM/FM/CD and DVD. If that is the case, PLEASE NOTE, if you play a DVD, the sound does not come from the tv, the sound comes from the speakers on the ceiling, the same speakers that you hear your radio from. ALSO PLEASE NOTE - If your in a campground and you want to watch the super action movie, , or any movie for that matter. Make sure you only have your interior speakers on and your exterior speakers off. Otherwise you will end up with angry fellow campers.

    No. My stereo does not have a dvd included. Just an am FM radio only. That's why we were surprised. Our other grand design had the DVD included. This one definitely does not.

    Doesn’t make any sense. Looking at the literature and brochures and videos it all shows a DVD

    Did you buy this new?
    What year?

    Perhaps a shortage of stereos and they put yours in? Doubt it but maybe. Call GD customer service and with your vin they can tell you quick

    Yes it's new. The "Power Package" shows only AM/FM stereo radio. So I guess the Transcends don't come equipped.
