Multi region code for my DVD player

With your set on and without disc in the tray:

1. Press PLAY from your remote control
2. Press the following button sequence: 1590 2379 390
3. Press PLAY again

This will release the region verification in your player(region free). However, some DVDs (multi region in particular) will not play, since they require region detection from the player unit.

Ok so here is how it was done.

Press the Pause button on your remote control. Using your remote control enter the code 3, 1, 4, 1, 5 and 9, Press the 0 button on your remote control for Region free, 1 for Region 1 or 2 for Region 2. Press the Pause button on your remote control. Power off your player and wait a few seconds. Power on your player
Or
Press the Setup button on your remote control then, Step, Next, Up and Down, select the region of your choice or Bypass for region free, save and then Exit the menu.

Hi
All American VHS recordings will be in NTSC system. If your player is compactable with NTSC system, you can play the VHS in your system. If it has no NTSC syste, the tape will play, but colour problems and vertical rolling will occur. OK.

The dvd player is for region 2. If you would like to make it where you can view region 1 dvds please read all the posts on the link below. Pay real close attencion to posts 7,9,10,11,12.

You will want to set it to 0 so you can play any region you would like at anytime.

After getting clarification from Fixya I can pass the links below to you to check yourself

Some players are harder than others to do this but you may want to try here or here
Comments:
Toshiba's and JVC's are the harder ones to do

I use a Phillips myself as it is not only cheaper but has much more going for it than many of the higher end units. i throw anything at it and it just plays

The older the unit that harder it is to do the region free thing with.
I let my EX have the panasonic (big grin)

If you cant find a fix then look at the codes available for cheaper brands and how easy it is to do it before you purchase one.

Just a thought.

Try one of these:

1) Press 'setup' on remote control
2) Move down to the 'lock' picture
3) Press '0000000'
4) Select region code as '0'

Or

1) Power on player with no disc in tray
2) Press PAUSE
3) Key in 314159
5) For multi-region, select 0
6) Press PAUSE again
7) Power off player
8) Wait a minute turn it on.

Try changing back to region 1. Let us know if it works

1. Remove any disks & Keep tray open.
2. Press the "Pause" button.
3. Key in "314159"
4. Press "0" when you see "Region code" on the display.
5. Press the "Pause" button.
6. Switch off the player.
7. Switch on again. It's now multi-region!

OR

Turn on Player. Make sure the dvd is selected
Open tray
Type 0 (zero) three times
Region Management test code will display
enter 0 for all regions
Press Pause to return
Region free is now activated.
