I need codes to unlock curtis dvd 1174 player, anybody?

The only way to get around the region codes, is to rip a DVD to your computer and remove the region code. Then burn the DVD to a DVD R. There are programs around on the net, but I'm not sure it is allowed in all countries.
Google for the programs.
A DVD player sometimes allows you to change the region code once. But it not even would allow you to switch back after you changed it once.

Your best bet would be to pick up a universal remote (found in any electronics store) that can replace the original remote. There are a lot of universal remotes available, most would probably do the job. In the manuals for these universal remotes you can find the specific code that refers to your DVD. (you just have to follow the programming instructions in the manual for the universal remote)
The Best of the Bunch would be an Intelligent Remote like the Logitech Harmony Remotes, they are a bit more expensive (starting around $40) than the generic universal remotes, but they are programmable and have probably the best chance of having the right code for the DVD. The other advantage to the universal is being able to control your other components with just one remote...

hope that helps... good luck
