 Region code hack posted by Francesco, October 06 2007: | |||
It's very easy, but you need a "one for all" remote control. I had a "kamaleon 3 for 1" at home (it's very useful to control dvd, tv and decoder at the same time). but I guess it works also with all other models of "Kamaleon". To hack the DVDs33 you have to send this sequence of 10 commands with the DVD remote control: Enter, 6, >=10, << , XXXX, Audio, 8, 1, Subtitle, 4 The problem is that the 5th command (XXX) is not present on the panasonic remote. So you have to use the Kamaleon for sending just that command. We can call that command "1" instead of "XXX". In short: On the Kameleon: Choose [DVD], [Magic] long enoughfor the rabbit, [0490] to set for a Panasonic DVD. Then set up a special command by choosing [Magic] long enough for the rabbit, [994], [Magic] (only one quick press), [143], then choose a key to which the command will be assigned (I chose "1" on the keypad). then do the sequence using the Panasonic remote, and the Kameleon: Enter, 6, >=10, << (on Panasonic) 1 (on Kameleon) Audio, 8, 1, Subtitle, 4 (on Panasonic) Of course you have to send the commands on the dvd turned on with no disc (you will see the NO DISC on the screen while sending commands). I tried on my Pnasonic DVDS33 and it became immediately region free! IP Logged | |||

A "one for all" programmable remote control is needed. I have used a kamaleon 3 for 1 I had at home (it's very useful to control dvd, tv and decoder at the same time). I guess it works also with all other models of Kamaleon. To hack the DVDs33 you have to send this sequence with the DVD remote control: Enter, 6, >=10, << , XXXX, Audio, 8, 1, Subtitle, 4 The problem is that the 5th command (XXX) is not available on the panasonic remote. So you have to use the Kamaleon for sending only that command that we might call just:"1",( instead of XXX). In short: On the Kameleon: Choose [DVD], [Magic] long enoughfor the rabbit, [0490] to set for a Panasonic DVD. Then set up a special command by choosing [Magic] long enough for the rabbit, [994], [Magic] (only one quick press), [143], then choose a key to which the command will be assigned (I chose "1" on the keypad). then push the sequence using the Panasonic remote control, and the Kameleon: Enter, 6, >=10, << (on Panasonic) 1 (on Kameleon) Audio, 8, 1, Subtitle, 4 (on Panasonic) Of course you have to send the commands while the dvd player is turned on and no disc is inserted (The "NO DISC" message will appear on the screen while sending commands). To see if it works you have to insert a DVD of the inerested region after following the above procedure. If it doesn't, turn it off and try it again. I tried on my Panasonic DVDS33 and it became immediately region free! | |||
