A quick fix would be to install Anydvd on it this will then allow any region disk to be played a better solution would be to flash a modified firmware to the DVD drive to allow all regions to be played.
It doesn't;) Not even on a Mac, you still have to flash the firmware. |
Re: UK DVD Player?
On the other hend, you can get a new DVD player for $50.

Re: UK DVD Player?
I got a cheap DVD player from K-mart and it's multi region out of the box. It is an Audiosonic.

Hi all,
We stupidly went and bought a brand new Sony DVD player with surround sound thinking it was cheaper to buy here, but we've now realised that it's Region 2 so not compatible with Australian DVDs. We're trying to change it to ALL region (apparently you just need a code), but so far we're not having any luck as it's a new model. Has anyone else had this problem and what did you do? Thanks! :confused: |

I thought Aus DVD's are region 4 which is the same as region 2. Mine plays both 4 & 2 and isn't region free as far as I know!
REGION 1 -- USA, Canada REGION 2 -- Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East, Greenland REGION 3 -- S.Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Parts of South East Asia REGION 4 -- Australia, New Zealand, Latin America (including Mexico) REGION 5 -- Eastern Europe, Russia, India, Africa REGION 6 -- China REGION 7 -- Reserved for Unspecified Special Use REGION 8 -- Reserved for Cruise Ships, Airlines, etc... REGION 0 or REGION ALL -- Discs are uncoded and can be played Worldwide, however, PAL discs must be played in a PAL-compatible unit and NTSC discs must be played in an NTSC-compatible unit. Both Oz and UK are PAL as opposed to NTSC. WHAT IS NTSC AND PAL STANDARD? An unlocked DVD will play on both UK and Oz players as they both use the PAL standard. |
