I'd like to thank Cheryl for her posting for Region Code Hack for a Philips MX5700D - posted March 18 2004: After buying this unit in the Netherlands (zone/region 2) while living there, I had visions of having to rebuild our DVD libary when we moved to Australia (zone/region 4). I can confirm that Cheryl's Region Hack Code worked for changing from region 2 to region 'free' in Australia, playing both region 2 and 4 DVD's. However, I cannot confirm if this unit will play other regional DVD's especially region 1 DVD's. From what I have read, it is this region that has the most problems - being American. 1)Make sure that there are no discs in the unit 2)Press "disc/media" on the remote 3)Set the display to "disc 1" - wait for the "no disc" display 4)Press the "disc menu" button on the remote control 5)Enter the following numbers slowly on the remote "159"(a light will flash in the bottom right of the display as each digit is registered) 6)"-0-0-0-0" appears on the display if done correctly 7)Enter "222222005255" on the remote 8)Press "disc menu" on the remote 9)Wait for "done" on the display 10)Press "standby" 11)Restart the unit - press "disc/media" | |||
