Region code hack posted by vassmanov, March 23 2009:
Press the Pause button on your remote control. Using your remote control enter the code 3,1,4,1,5 and 9, At this point, a blue screen displays showing that you are in 'region altering mode'. Press the 0 button on your remote control for Region free. Press the Pause button on your remote control. Power off your player and wait a few seconds. Power on your player and your ready to go!

It worked for me (after a few false starts)

How to unlocked region code

XD-DV480 Multi-Region: Converting the player to an alternative region:
  • Supply power to the unit and power on from standby mode via the remote
  • Wait until No Disc is indicated on the fascia
  • Now press Pause followed by 3, 4, 2, 2, 9 and then 2
  • The display should now read CODE
  • Now press 0, 0 for region free or 0 then 1 for region one, 2 for region two, and so on (Note: RCE discs will require specific region set)
If the above modification fails to work then the alternative method below may work:-
  • Connect the DVD player
  • Use the Remote Control to turn power on
  • Wait until No Disc appears
  • Press Pause and type the following code, 8, 9, 2, 6, the display will show "CODE__"
  • Within 5 seconds press 00 for all regions
  • Press Pause and Power
This should work for you.
