When I first bought my new computer a few months ago, I could play any region DVDs using PowerDVD. Now, and I bet one of Windows XP's updates has something to do with this, it tells me to select a region and says I can only change it two more times. Does anyone know how I can stop this happening? I don't want to commit myself to one region, I'm just not that kind of man! |

You could get a multi-region dvd player. They're easy to find outside the united states. |

Thanks for the suggestion, but I really don't want to spend any more money right now! I tried DVD Genie, a region-hacking program, but that didn't work. |

Every DVD code has a region code (i.e. the countires where it can be viewed)...theres one for US, another for Europe, another for Japan etc..... This is so Movie Companies have some control over when & where things get released.....i.e. US gets DVDs well before UK (in a similar way to films).... DVD players will only play 1 region...(altho some allow you do bybass the rebion setting altogther).... Blame the MPAA.... |
