Case not included. Playback, fast forward, and other functions have been confirmed to work on our player. (There were no malfunctions or freezes.) We believe there are no issues with viewing, but please understand that we have not checked every minor detail.

Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item or are very particular about condition.
