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.

Sorry I can not answer that question. This Toshiba DVD Player stopped working after a couple of months and I discarded it.

I do not know. In case others might, here's what that means: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_region_code

the dvd only read region #1 DVD discs (USA DVD), but dont worry, you just need to recode videos and movies into a flash device or HD. More here:

I have both region 1 and 2 dvd's and they play ok. Just make sure that when you receive the box there is a 'region free' sticker on the outside.

Your player came with a paper with a code sequence to set it to region 2. If you can't find it message me again and I will help you.

Yes, I've tested the player and it does play region one and region two. I have not played any other regions (three or four).

You have to set a region first (which I don't want to do) because the drive comes region-free (with firmware level RPC-2). As is, I have tried playing a Region 2 DVD from Japan using MPC HC, VLC and Power DVD 10 and only MPC was able to open the disk but the image was heavily pixelized and it eventually crashed.

Mine will play most dvd's. I've noticed that it will not play foreign made dvd's regardless of whether they are region 1 or region 0.

You do not. However, there are several DVDs made for the US that this player will not play (seemed like about 30%-40% the movies I rented/owned would not play.

I have an LG BD670 and a Toshiba BDX2250KU and both play region 0 PAL format dvds

So far I have used Region 1 and 2 discs. No problems. It is a really great player. Very sharp pictures.

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.

Not sure to be honest. I have only played 1 US DVD (from library) but all our DVDs from the UK worked perfectly. Sorry I can't be more help. Might find out after renting more DVDs in the US.

My region 2 DVDs play fine. Make sure you have the region-free version of the BDX1400 and not the regular BDX1400.

Jason: Mine plays NTSC and PAL region free discs fine but anything that is region locked (2, 3, etc) wont play. I played some discs that were marked region 2 pal and they would not play but others also marked region 2 pal played fine as well as region 3. I suspect that, at least in my case, that some of my dvd's might be labeled region 2 or 3 but are in fact all region or region 0. Have you checked anything that you know for sure is region locked? Its very interesting that you are having no issues at all. At least I know that it is NTSC PAL friendly. Otherwise, this player rocks

I wish I could tell you 100% yes. It says it is all region free and will play any dvd from any country or region so I imagination it would. I know this answer it's that helpful but so far mine has never given me a problem with any region I've tried. I hope this helps.

No. The following is from the manual:"BD-Video: This player plays BD-Video with marks containing the region code A.DVD-Video: This player plays DVD-Video with marks containing the region code 1 and ALL."
