Regionless DVD players?
I've heard alot about these, and I was wondering if they exist and wondering where on earth I could find one. There are certain DVD's i'd like to purchase that are not of region 1 encryption. Anyway, thanks in advance for the help.

It's easier to unlock your own DVD player so that it's multi-region. There are web sites with codes for all players, can't think of any of the top of my head, possibly ;
www.dvdreviewer.co.uk Good luck! |
Try www.videohelp.com. I think it would help, plus it comes in handy alot! :cool:
|
I forgot that multi region DVD players seem to a UK bonus. I have quite a few nifty imports, they're very handy.

This question has been a 'pet pevie' of mine for a long time. I made complaints to Toshiba (falling on deaf ears) after I purchased my laptop 2 years ago. I do a LOT of traveling and when renting a movie anywhere in the world I have to re-set my regional code but Toshiba, in their infinite wisdom gives one only 5 changes, then it is SET on the last code you use. How arbitrary!
Thanks for those website which I will check out. Any other contributions would be welcome on this subject. |

It seems I have one, and it's a JVC. By a stroke of luck, I bought it knowing nothing of all this "region" business.
edit: I was so wrong about this. :blush: My player not only isn't region free, after searching for days for a code to unlock it, I discovered there is none for the player I have. :bawling: |

Nah!:p May we live to see it! |
I thought my dad had a region-free DVD player once. I bought the Martin Scorsese Collection from America, and tried Goodfellas in his player and it worked. And so did the others. But as it turns out, it was just the DVDs that were region-free.

Yeah, I know. I've done it to two of my players already.
