Does this burner make NTSC Region 0 or Region 1 Blu Ray Discs? Thank you in advance for your help.

You can double check but I'm pretty sure that you set the region in whatever software you're using.

Region Codes for Blu-ray is not 0, 1, etc. it is in A, B, and C. However, when you create a Blu-ray movie using the DIGISTOR Blu-ray burner and the included Multimedia software the Blu-ray disc does not have a region code associated with it. Hope this helps!The DIGISTOR Support Teamwww.digistor.com/support

Sorry. I just used this device tu burn data disks (25GB data) for backups. Is a good unit. In my knowledge, when you burn a disk for yourself, is region free.

not 100% sure, but I guess it does. I have had no problem at all with this burner. Great buy

Does NTSC regions as it is not locked at all. However, there are other brands out there that does the same with faster read/write speed. The built in battery does not last too long. I've open the drive and found the battery is just one little tiny battery. Good thing about it is it can be replaced. Thx

It's my understanding that the disks burned by this item are region free. I have never had any problem with them being played on any blu ray player.

I just had a live chat with Panasonic and it is region encoded (the CSR said all their Blu-Ray players are region encoded) to region 1 for DVD and region A for Blu-Ray disks. HTH!

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)

dragger, Samsung Blu-Ray players sold in the United States will support DVD Region 1/Open/All. They will also support Blu-Ray "Region A". The limits are placed by the copyright owner, based on the number of regions that copyright holder wishes the content to be played in. If the copyright owner wants DVD Regions 1, 2 and 5 to be allowed, but not 3, 4 or others, they can add that limitation - let's refer to them as "flags" - onto the disc. The player will check for the "right flags", and if the correct region is allowed, the player will play the content. If the wrong flag says, "no, you can't show this content in this region", the player will reject the content. DVDs may use one code (a single region), a combination of codes (multi-region), every code (which includes all regions) or no codes (region free). Does that help explain how region codes manage content? If not, let us know and we'll be happy to explain. --Mr. S

This is inaccurate. PAL discs are converted by the player. I have one and tested it soon after it arrived. It works flawlessly on my NTSC-only TV. This player will play literally almost ANYTHING. Format, code, region, you name it.

HD DVD players can play HD DVDs from any region. When dealing with 1080p or other HD resolutions, there is no pal or NTSC anymore. The only thing you have to be concerned with is SD DVD which is still region coded. ALL HD DVD MADE WILL PLAY ON ALL HD DVD PLAYERS REGARDLESS OF REGION. HD DVD IS REGION FREE

I think it shouldn´t matter since you are downloading into a PC. Then if you burn a DVD, a lot of DVD players in Europe play both NTSC and PAL

No. Many Blu-rays are NOT region encoded; you can check yours to see if they have an A/B/C designation. If not, you are good to go on Blu-ray. If region is an issue for your collection, you can check out hacks like this to make your player region free: http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks/panasonic-dmp-bd65/10861 (similar model) If you have DVDs you want to play back, you will run into PAL (Europe) vs NTSC (US) issues even if you apply a region code hack like this. You would have to search for a firmware hack to play PAL DVDs.

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

I purchased this unit for my Grand son (lives in another state), so I no longer have the instruction booklet. However, when I purchased this unit, it was advertised a a "Multi-Region - PAL/NTSC Format Player" - so it "should" play Region 2 disc's (I believe all of Europe uses the PAL format). I have never played any other format other than the US Region, so I do NOT have first hand knowledge.

Otto, The answer is yes for most but not all. go this site to check if your player is listed. http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks I think region 0 is the setting for all regions. Good luck. EdCherif

My LG BD390 can play PAL discs. I don't know what the region encoding is, since it just says "PAL regions" (whatever that means). However, I did get it from the UK. So it must be a Region 1 PAL disc, which is weird. Looking around AVForums confirmed that the BD390 passed their compatibility test (though the picture is not as good as NTSC).Digital Fred- just do a search on 'region free DVD (or Blu-ray) players'.
