Many commercial DVDs are equipped with Region Code technology to protect its copyright, with the result that DVDs can only be played on DVD players with the same region code. For example, DVD bought in Japan could not be played in the US since they belong to different region codes.

I suggest get region free player on your pc for free so that you can play region-locked DVD discs. You could try Leawo Blu-ray Player which is a region free, Blu-ray player.

Do an google search for your model and region hack, avoid sites that ask you to pay for the info. Not all models have hacks.

DVD Decryptor or DVD Shrink can remove Region settings from ANY protected DVD. Just make a BACKUP of whatever you are trying to watch on your player.

I have just purchased a LG BP620 DVD player. It is meant to play regions 1 and 2 DVD's but it only plays region 2. Does anybody have a multi region code to unlock the player. Roy

Bad news for you. I found another person asking this same question. Here's the answer:
"I did a little research before and again now, there are no available hacks for this model. In some cases the dvd portion can be done with a hack and the bluray requires a chip mod, in the case of this model no hacks are available for dvd. I did locate some versions for sale new as region free units and the reason for that is someone must actually hands on modify the unit to allow such. Its also best practice to use a seperate cheap region free dvd only unit because if you hack the dvd end of a bluray bluray requires updates to play certain discs and features each update usually knocks out the unlock and must be done again but on most units only a factory firmware can be unlocked and once updated cannot be done again. Thus why it is best to have a seperate unit.
Sorry for the bad news, if you need any further assistance just let me know.
Thanks,
Joe"

I own a 5-DVD Changer with a Home Theatre System. It is an LG Model # LH-E932TB. It was working great then all of a sudden it now says ''CHECK REGIONAL CODES''. Does anyone know what to do...

Have you changed the Regional Code of the DVD changer? Changing of Regional Code of the Changer is permitted for 5 times. To view movies of different region code, some people change it. Suppose you or someone have viewed a movie of different region movie after changing the region code & now you are trying to view a DVD of your region. In this case you will have to change the region code to your region. Changing of region code is available through the setup of the Changer.

I have the 5083 dvd player, but it only seems to play region 2 dvds. I've tried going through the menus, but it asks for a country code. The codes are two letters A-Z. I'm assuming that there's...

The Country Code is just related to the Subtitles etc and nothing to do with the Region.
Most DVD Players/Recorders are set to Play the Region of DVD from the Country they were purchased from. Only some are Region Free (will play DVDs from any Country) when purchased.

Some DVD Players/Recorders can be changed to Region Free by simply entering a code on the Remotes handset or by following instructions to enter a Service Menu and change it their.

Unfortunately yours can only be changed by updating the Firwmare which is a risky and difficult process even if you know what you're doing. I wouldn't advise anyone to try it without previous experience as you could render your DVD Player/Recorder useless.

How can I make the LG BD550 regioncodefree?

This model is already Region Free for DVDs but only Region A (in most cases) for Blu Rays and can't be changed. You can buy a version of this which is sometimes called BDP550 which is Region Free for DVDs and Blu Rays.

Im wondering if anyone know how to turn off the region zone for a Sony DVP-FX750. It was purchased in america with a zone 1 & we have zone 4 in Australia. I've tried to burn a DVD to play, but...

This question is one of my most frequent on FixYa.

There is no "region-free" or "region 0" setting for any DVD player/recorder. Only DVD media can be region free. Every single offer to set a player or recorder to region free that I am familiar with has been a scam. The reason for this is to prevent DVD piracy.

Most DVD players and recorders (SONY included) have provisions for making a maximum of THREE changes to their region code. A fourth attempt at changing the region code will result in the player/recorder being turned into a paperweight.

Bkhopkins- in your case, you will be able to change your region code from region 1 (USA) to region 4 (AUS). Doing so will leave your player with 2 more changes, maximum. Check your manual for the procedure and the exact number of changes you are allowed. Please be aware that after you change to Region 4, any Region 1 DVD's will not be viewable unless you switch back, which will use another of your three changes.

You have an alternative to salvage your DVD's by downloading a program called DVD Shrink. This program is capable of removing the region code from your DVDs and saving them as region-free at the sacrifice of some quality. You will at least the be able to view your US DVD's without sacrificing a region code change on your player.

Good Luck, and Thank You for using FixYa!
