The following was cut and pasted from http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/amabot/?pf_rd_url=%2Fe ... FH4FJ3VXW2 : 'Make Your Philips DVD Player Multi-region Capable In a few easy steps you can turn your Philips DVD player into a multi-region capable machine; then you can enjoy DVDs from Amazon.com, Amazon.ca or even Amazon.co.jp. An NTSC capable television may be required to view DVDs purchased from outside the UK. Instructions 1. Open the DVD player disc tray 2. Press 9,9,9,9,0 on the remote control (wait a second between key presses) 3. Close the DVD player disc tray Notes: the above code will turn your player into what is called "region-free". If you require the player to be a single region, for example region 1, then simply repeat the process and replace the "0" with a "1". This may be required if you have trouble playing DVDs purchased from outside the UK that have Region Code Enhancement technology on them. These titles are in a minority and you will find a substantial amount of titles will play without the need to change region. Please note that switching between regions can only be performed a maximum of 25 times before the player is locked on the 25th region selected. Our recommendation is that you set the player to region 0 and change to a specific region when the need arises.' I am not sure how true the 25-time limit is, but I have tested RCE discs with the player set to Region 0 and they play perfectly. So, in a nutshell, 99990 is the way to go! Best regards, Big C |
