 Region code hack posted by jame_s, January 02 2005: | |||
hack is exactly the same as the 5000 series LG playes, so i've just copied & pasted. Step 1 Download the file lg5000.zip by clicking on the link: http://www.area450.co.uk/images/LG5000.zip Step 2 Unzip the file lg5000.zip. It will create a directory folder called RMTM0000. Step 3 You need a CD Writer to write a new disk with the files you've just unziped (RMTM0000 folder). Step 4 You need a CD burning software (like Easy CD Creator, Nero, CD Clone, HP RecordNow, etc....) to make a Data disc. Step 5 I've read not to use a 700mb capacity CD-R, but mine worked just fine! For information, I used a Memorex CD-R 700MB 24x. This speed (24x) I think is the key to success, not the capacity or size of the CD-R. Step 6 Using the CD burning software, create a Data disc and add the directory folder RMTM0000. That's all you need ! *** When burning the disc do not use DirectCD *** Step 7 Switch "On" your DVD player and TV and insert the newly burned disc. When prompted select "0" for multiregion and then ENTER. Power off and... it's done! Good Luck! | |||
