 Region code hack posted by haloguy628, January 29 2006: | |||
I used the hack for DVD-C750 and it worked. The REGION 0 appeared on left upper corner after the hack entry. Just do the following: 1) power up the unit as normal 2) open tray 3) enter 99990 with remote a message will appear on the tv "region 0" 4) press enter & close tray works instantly * by changing the end number you can reset the region ie 99991 would be region 1 ect | |||

The information in quotes is cut and pasted from www.amazon.co.uk on their page containing instructions for the Philips 625: "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 don't know if the 25-time limit applys to newer Philips/Yamaha firmware, but I was able to successfully play RCE DVDs after making it multi-region compatible. So choose 0 and leave it alone! In case some of you are curious, I already tried 99999 and it didn't change the region whatsoever. So just stick with 99990 and you're ready to go! Best regards, Big C | |||
