Is There A Place I Can Take My Samsung Dvd/blu-ray Player To Make It Region Free?
Posted November 30th, 2009
You can do it yourself:
1. Switch on the unit.
2. Remove any discs.
3. Wait for “No Discs” message.
4. Press “Repeat” on the remote control (not “Repeat A-B”)
5. Type 57538 followed by region number(9 = Multi Region mode).
6. Press OPEN/CLOSE on the remote control.
7. Switch unit off.
8. Enjoy.
(This only works for DVDs, though.)
Oh, and to the first answer, Region coding was NOT introduced to prevent piracy - it was introduced by the film companies to make them more money. This is why 99% of all DVD players have a manufacturers built-in hack - they don’t agree with region coding any more than the public do…
