The above one didn't work for me (my recorder is bought in The Netherlands. This one did work for my DVDHR753: Region code hack posted by Craig Waugh, January 08 2007: This worked on my Samsung DVD-HR737 Region 2 purchased in Germany ** Everything should be input from the remote ** 1. Power on the player with no disc in the tray 2. Press the ‘DVD’ button 3. Press the number ‘0’ five times 4. Press the ‘Repeat’ button (NOT ‘Repeat A-B’) 5. Enter the numbers 5 7 5 3 8 quickly The current region code should be displayed in the upper left corner 6. Press the number ‘9’ for region free (multi-region) 7. Open the tray and close it again | |||

It took me several attempts plus browsing Hacks for the other (annoyingly) similiarly named Samsung jobbies to get this to work. You have to enter a code specifc your region (mine is 4) I gleaned the codes from the hacks for HR735 (no thats not a typo) and HR755 (the one with then bigger disk). Using the Remote: Make sure there is no DVD in it. Make sure it's in DVD mode. Turn it off. Turn it on. Wait for it to start up (showing DVD mode in the display) Press Repeat (for a half a second?). Enter the code for your region Region 1 use 2,9,3,3,4,9 Region 2 use 5,7,5,3,8,9 Region 3 use 5,6,7,3,2,9 Region 4 use 7,6,8,8,4,9 <--- This worked for me (in NZ). Region 5 use 5,3,8,1,4,9 Region 6 use 2,4,4,6,2,9 When you get to the second to last digit you *may* see your current region. When you see "9" appear you have entered the code correctly. Now be quick and eject and close the DVD drive before it vanishes. I used the buttons on the machine to open/close the drive. You have to be confident and quick with your button presses; it's very sensitive to pauses etc. If it does not work the first time keep trying. Good Luck. PS. If you have no luck have a look at the hacks for the HR755. | |||
