I got a technical question: I ordered the Derren Brown DVDs from Amazon in the UK. Just got them and they don't play here because it says INVALID REGION.
First, I thought nowadays all DVDs were supported everywhere? But could it be that my DVD player is just really old? Do all new DVD players allow any region? Greg

If you live in Canada, USA or Japan then DVD's from anywhere else in the world will not play as they are made in the format of PAL and In North America we use NTSC format. You can try playing it on a computer as sometimes the can play all region dvd's.

Don't ! there is a free solution if you have a computer that reads all regions. (dell's laptops do usually I think) I don't remember how they are called but some softwares can copy a dvd to make it region free or change its region. so then you can see it on your tv.

Alternatively, you can find on the Internet codes to "unlock" your DVD player to play any region: some DVD can be unlocked with a normal remote control while others will need a custom device (usually found for a few $$$ on ebay...).
Personally, I use DVDRegion+CSS Free (http://www.dvdidle.com/) on my PC and works a treat.. Good luck! |
