	Hi all. I have a Sony DVP-NS400D & Sony DVP-S536D DVD player. I can tell you that you can't hack your Sony to make it Region Free by using the standard Sony remote. You must use a programmable remote such as a Philips Pronto: Check out this site to buy one: www.letsautomate.com/index.cfm?CFID=35143&CFTOKEN=73212716&Nav=LearningRemotes& Then once you've bought one, go to this link: www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdhacks.php?select=Sony+DVP-NS405 which is a thread to this site, and program 5 hex codes into the remote "Numbers 1 -5". Follow the intructions on that link and it takes about 1 seconds to hack your sony. So Very Easy. Hope that helps all the other Sony DVD Player owners out there. Cheers. Rob. P.S. I know all this because we receieved the Pronto remote yesterday and hacked the Sony's with an hour or two. Brilliant.

	I've tried the hack mentioned on my DVP-S536D. I used the winsamp.exe and the remote.txt mentioned on this site. I placed these on a bootable (windows98) floppy on a compac armada laptop with IrDA. I didn't notice any reception of the transmitted codes, but after sending the codes in sequence: 1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5 the player woke from standby. It didn't report 'SUCCESS', and wend back into standby rather quickly. I repeated the sequence, and again, the player woke after sending the last '5'. Now I have to find out whether the player actually is region free. As I do not yet own discs with a region other than 2, I'll try later and report back.

	None of the above hacks works. Forget it. There is a chip IC101 chip called 9080 or something. And you have to mess with it. I think cutting the first leg of it will make your player region free. If anyone dare, let me know if it works :)
