Hi. I'm not sure? I live in The U.S.. I'm sure if you have a region 1 compatible dvd player it might work. Hope that helps.

I always thought a Blue Ray player was different from a DVD player. Don't have any blue ray discs so wouldn't know. Sorry can't help you further. But it does play British and U.S. DVD's.

I don't know if UK version will work in US or not. You might ask the manufacturer.

Yes it does. It works in most of Europe including France, Italy and Spain. It does not work in the UK.

I didn't have to unlock anything and I live in America but have English DVD's from when I lived in England. Not knowing what 'region' you are in, it is difficult to answer fully, but, as far as I'm aware, it will play any DVD.

Probably not. This is a region 1 (North America) player. You can use a region-free player. Also, most computer DVD players are region-free, so you can try that.

Yes, I have not had any problems with any of the DVDs working and I use a U.S. DVD player.

I'm not really sure because I only live in the one region of the United States. I do however have a couple discs from the UK and it seems to play them without a problem.

yes, the dvd player is region free right out of the box - will play any region and I have personally used the player to play both UK (region 2) and US (region 1) dvds. The unit handles going from region 2 to region 1 and back to region 2 with absolutely no hesitation. The unit is also PAL/NTSC compatible which means something completely different - if you have a UK purchased television it is in PAL format while a US television is in NTSC format - this unit can be connected to either US or UK television and the image will display correctly. The plug that is with the unit is a US plug.

Amazon's site has a bit of confusion on this issue - many of the players will indicate NTSC/PAL compatible but what this means is that the dvd player has the ability to be connected to either a US or UK television not necessarily does this mean it will play a region 2 disk. If you want multi region player in order to play either region 1 dvds or region 2 dvds then I would recommend going with one that specifically indicates "region free" or "plays region 1,2,3,4,5....."

Yes, definitely. I bought it for my brother. Now he can play American and English DVD's. The machine automatically knows which type of DVD you insert. It saves you having to have two DVD players, one for each country.

The one I have plays all the region 2 movies I've tried on it. Most were from England but at least one was from Greece and it played them all in addition to my Region 1 American ones so I don't think you'll have any problem.

Normally videos would say rather or not they play in different regions, but I don't see that on the ones I have. There are, however, different Just Dance videos for different countries. If you want the US version, I would check your DVD player to see if its a multi regional, or check to see if the internet has a video converter that would allow you to play the video.I hope this works for you!

Has anybody actually tried this on the 5960 to see whether it works? I'd like to hear some success stories before I try it. I plan to go to the UK next year. Are most of the DVD's sold in the UK PAL Region 2 or "All Regions" ? Several of the British Railway ones I've ordered are Pal and "All".

As far as i know you can use downloadable programs and software such as vlc media player which allows you to play a dvd regardless of the region.p.s Im not a computer wiz when it comes to dvds but im sure with a few minutes of research you can come up with your answer.VLC Media Player-( http://www.downloadster.org/lp/vlc-player/354/?_u=8lgn9qing2ajg83bhfvbh70bappahscpb17bum2a2ko2lp9rs331-28238245d0382006e38babdfc4b8d8f6 )

Description indicates that the unit is region free and one answer to an earlier question indicated the responder played both region 1 and region 4 disks with no problems. I am currently waiting for seller to response to request for verification as to the unit being region free and will post when/if I get a response. I wanted to verify with seller as amazon site has confusing phrasing between a unit being region free (what you want) and units being NTSC/PAL compatible which would mean that the unit could be used with either a US or a UK television set ( US is NTSC and UK is PAL)

No it definitely will not. I hope it will be released for the uk market soon as I bought it for my son and he cannot play it on his machine.
