I can confirm that the classical hack posted for other SONY models (eg see DAV S500 hacks) works for the DAV SR4W. I used a Palm m515 for the downloads. Region 5 player can now play Region 2. Presumably should also work on region 2 players - I understand from my electronics store that they are identical except for the region coding. 1 - Go to http://www.pacificneotek.com browse DOWNLOAD and select the remote for MOST USERS. Don't download the v1.171 as this is not registered and certain features don't work. I downloaded OmnniRemote Pro (which is free) 2 - Go to http://dev0_2000.tripod.com and download the Sony_DVD_Hack.pdb 3 - Install both files to your Palm Pilot 4 - Turn the unit on with no disc inside. 5 - (ON THE EQUIPMENT NOT ON REMOTE) Press and hold both the Eject and Stop keys while turning the volume control to the right. The unit's display will show "DVD" then fickle, and will say "Service In". You should be seeing the Service Menu now. 6 - Turn on the Palm Pilot and got to REMOTE feature 7 - Make sure you select the SONY DVD HACK from the drop down menu in the top right-hand corner. The screen should show a row of buttons (ignore the screen instructions as they are for another SONY DVD Player). 8 - I pressed the sequence of 12345 twice with the PALM and then turned off the DVD PLAYER. After the first sequence the unit's display flicked - so one sequence may in fact be enough. 9 - I tried playing a region 2 DVD (on the region 5 player) and it WORKED. | |||
