    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer No, you cannot use the external cd/DVD player in your Toyota RAV4 2019, if it did work then you would be paying attention to the movie and not safely driving, always wear your seatbelts and use your turn signals.

  • QuestionIf this doesn't play Blu-Ray format DVDs, why does it come up when I specify that I'm looking for an external Blu Ray drive? The regular DVD format hasn't been the standard for years.

    Asked by marauder.

    • Answer Because Blu-ray isn't a DVD format. Blu-ray is Blu-ray and DVD is DVD. Two different things. Don't include DVD in your search.
