Re: Anyone got a region free DVD player?
I need to buy a new DVD player as the kids are now getting region 4 DVDs and we already have a load of region 2 (Europe) ones.. so instead of having our old UK one and the new Aussie one side by side, I thought I'd just go and buy one that does all the regions..
Anyone got any recommendations.. had a look online and its all pretty techie for me.. I just want a DVD player that plays all regions? or is that not normal?
Ta in advance

I have the slightly older version. Bought it 2 years ago, still runs great. Also plays divx files, and unlike many cheap dvd players out there, it plays them reliably and the menu options are very good.
It is listed as region4, but you can make it region free within a few seconds.

We also unlocked our DVD player when we arrived thanks to the website mentioned.
No manual needed just make and model and a remote.
The machine now plays DVD's from anywhere.

Re: Anyone got a region free DVD player?
I bought a Marantz one from Tottenham Court Road in London - it was on display and therefore cheap
It was advertised as region free - which involved me going on the internet to find the code which to tap into the remote control to unlock it.
I had a Pioneer before that. It was irritating that to unlock it would require soldering things on the circuit board. As if I was going to do that....
