Can A DVD Player Be Plugged Into The Jensen Mechless RV Stereo JEN25RR?
Published 09/24/2026
Question:
We need to replace a nonfunctioning Jensen AWM968. Will this act as audio-out for our TV and can we connect a DVD player as an input?

Hi Bill!
You can indeed connect a DVD player to the Jensen Mechless RV Stereo - Double DIN - Bluetooth, USB - 36W - 3 Zones - 12V # JEN25RR via the front HDMI port. The audio from the DVD player will then pass through the stereo to play over your RV's built-in cabin speakers. It will do the same for your TV via the rear HDMI port, so this sounds like it will be a perfect match for what you are looking for! ^___^
What kind of camper are you needing this for?

This is in a Forrest River RP179, which came with the Jensen AWM968. As it happens, we still play a number of DVD videos and CDs, but it seems none of the newer stereo units have a DVD any longer. Since the JEN25RR is a bit smaller, we thought that a small DVD player might fit in the larger space left by the AWM968. We just need to fashion a cover plate to hold the JEN25RR and a suitable DVD player.
