When I try to get a dvd to work I get "Regional Code Error" and the dvd won't play at all. What can I do?

Instead of getting a blue screen with DVD showing, the screen is gray and Regional Code Error comes up and I can't get that error message off the screen. It won't play the dvds.

DVDs can only be played on DVD players with the same region code. You can get a dvd copy without region code so that you could play it on your dvd player, You could tryLeawo DVD Copy to remove the dvd region code

You need to change the region code in the user menu under dvd settings.

    David, I have the original remote, I've changed the batteries, I've cleaned the dvd player with a disk. It still says Region Code Error after "Reading". I cannot or did not get a user menu settings to come up on the screen. I can find nothing about region codes in the original Owners Manual.

    In that case you need to replace the dvd mechanism assembly

Philips DVD player Model: DVP5992 Fixing the orange screen

<span>How to fix the orange screen back to normal!</span><br /><br />The other day i turned on my Philips DVD player model number: DVP5992 and the screen was orange red, instead of blue/grayish! I have tried to google the problem, but no luck. So what i did is, i disconnected the power cord and the HDMI cable and waited for like 30 min. After 30 min i plugged it back in and my screen went back to normal, being blue and gray!<br />If you have this problem, do this, and your screen will turn back to normal.<br /><br />Also if you want multi-regional code to play all regions DVD's, do this:<br /><br /> press Setup <br />select the Preference Tab (4th setting to the right)<br />keep that tab open and Press 1,3,8,9,3,1 <br />Press up/down on remote key to select "0" <br />and hit "OK" then hit setup to exit. <br /><br />good luck and enjoy!<br />Naztech<br />

I've got VW Passat b6 2006. Rosen-VW0710-H11 is installed in it. When I try to play DVD (no matter audio or video) system displays message: "Password Fail". What can be the reason of this...

I would recommend resetting the Rosen unit. This is done by entering the "Menu" and pressing "Settings". From this screen, you select "Keypad" in the top right corner of the screen and then enter "7-5-2-3" and press "Enter". This should erase any code for Parental Control (levels 0 - 8). Also, the Rosen product states to only use "Store bought media" for CD's and DVD's meaning that it won't play all 'burned' discs. Hope this helps.- Elliot

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.

Regional code

1.- TURN ON THE DVD PLAYER
2.- PRESS OPEN/CLOSE
3.- PRESS THE FOLOWING NUMBERS 8888
4.- PRESS ENTER UNTIL SHOW "Region code: 9" (Region Free)
5.- PRESS OPEN/CLOSE

OR

1-Turn on your DVD player.
2-Open the tray.
3-Press 9 five times, you will see a number (for me it was 6, you'll see it on the screen, where the DVD displays all messages, like a blue bar up top) then I pressed 9 a few more time until the number being displayed there turned to a 9, when it does then press enter, now it's region free.

Regional codes

The DVD region cannot be changed more than 5 times without 3rd party software which is very hard to find now as it has even been restricted in Europe.
You can look for "dvd region css free" online but you may not be able to get it anymore.

Good luck!
