Hi, this may not be good news. I live in the UK and have a BBC sign in & use a VPN all the time on laptop, tablet and phone.
I can't use the Iplayer unless I switch off the VPN even if I have the VPN set to a UK town. It would seem that the BBC picks up on the VPN and blocks content...on the grounds of 'rights issues'. I know I know.... not prepared to say how I feel about this on a public forum. They need to get it sorted!!!
best regards.

SOURCE: Playing dvds in other regions

The region code is fixed by the manufacturer and you will not find help from them to change it. However there are ways of doing it, go to the web site below and look in the left hand panel for "multi-region"............. http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/reviews/ChannelReviews.asp

SOURCE: 42'' LG Plasma bought in Australia doesn't work in UK?

Find out if Australia uses a different standard of HD programming than Guernsey or not since it's not picking up any channels at all with an attenna. Does the skybox use only scart connections and that's how your small lcd is connected to it?

Watch netflix with samsung TV

Hi , It is easy to have bbc iplayer or UK or US netflix on Samsung smart TV and watch it outside the UK or US
there are two way to do , one is using DNS ,, but no recommended because it blocked occasionally, so the best way is use reliable VPN provider which you can get from this link http://www.overplay.net/#a_aid=vpnprovider
you can get the account and pay for one month 10 $ or one Year 100 $ VPN + smart DNS , also you can ask for refund if not work for you so you are in safe side!

after getting your account ready , you need VPN Router , and technology of VPN better should be openvpn it is faster more stable than pptp or l2tp because it reconnect if even your main connection drop and restored
once your VPN router is ready , just reset your samsung TV to factory default , you can go to TV manual and do it
connect your TV directly to the VPN Router for your reference connection should be like below
Main Internet Router -----> VPN Router ------> TV
restart your TV and live it for 30 minutes ! vola you will see netflix , Pandoora , Spotify will apear on TV apps , just enter your user name password of netflix and start enjoying it !!! let me know if this helps?

How can i get my psn password back? The sign-in-id email doesn't exist anymore (It was deleted because i did not sign on it for few months). I do have the original ps3, in which i created the account,...

You can try to contact SCE (Sony Computer Entertainment) and speak with a customer service representative, and explain to them your situation.

You would have to figure out, through that website, what number or method you should use to contact them.
