12 volt DVD player for bedroom

I'd like to install a 12 volt DVD player in the bedroom of our 2012 295RKD. We have the factory installed 12 volt Jensen TV, but no DVD player. The TV is plugged into a cigarette lighter type of outlet in the closet. Two questions: 1) Does anybody have a recommendation of what DVD player to purchase? 2) If I run the DVD player off of the same 12V circuit that the TV is plugged into will I blow a fuse?

I'm betting somebody's done this before

thanks

How about a DVD player that is used for the kids in the back seat while traveling? I would assume an inexpensive one would do the job. I would think about installing a separate 12v circuit for the DVD player. You could try (for a quick test) installing a splitter for the 12v and plug both into the splitter and then the splitter into the 12v outlet. I would think the worst would be a blown fuse. I prefer the first option of a separate circuit as a permanent solution.

Thanks for the responses. I found a Jensen DVD player that looks very similar to a DIN mount car stereo. Supposedly it has audio/video output via RCA cables. Hmmm.

I just purchased a Sony Bravia DVD player for our Montana bedroom.
It was around $49. I can plug it into the outlet in the washer/ dryer closet or use an inverter for 12v. I just wish keystone would wire in the bedroom TVs to the entertainment center.
