 Region code hack posted by Marten, October 21 2003: | |||
The H&B 6526 is just like Kiss DP-450! So you can make it region-free like that Kiss. I made 3 CDs from ISO-files (In your burn software choose "burn image", no multisession, close disc, disc-at-once.) - first I upgraded with real H&B firmware: H&B_DX-6526_FW2.6.8_PAL from www.hb-direct.com , just to make sure I could go back in case of something going wrong. Put the CD in, power off&on (=powercycle), the menu apears, I choose 'full update' and it works! But the next steps also work so you don't need this first step. - you need firmware version 2.7.x for the region hack to work. So upgrade with kiss firmware from http://www.gooddvdstuff.com/files/ I don't like the fun backgrounds you find there, so i used KiSS_DP-450_FW2.7.4_PAL.zip. Or use the more official http://www.kiss-technology.com/ Use the iso like explained above. Next time you power on, you need to do the quick setup. I did that now, just to be sure. And I played a DVD I saw before for a second, because Kiss needs to lock a region before you can unlock it. - Next you need the hijacker hack. Just google for 'kiss hijacker rpc1' because http://hijacker.rpc1.org/kiss/ was down when I looked a minute ago. For this CD you don't need to powercycle. Just select update. Ready after a powercycle! - Now, as you know, region free doesn't mean it's all automatic. YOU choose the right region as often as needed: On the remote: eject(or open tray), clear, 2, 7, 6, enter And in this menu you can choose the region! You did it! And you feel GOOD! By the way, the firmware update also gave you DivX 3.11 and other improvements like FF/RW in DivX movies. | |||
