Unfortunately, my answer would be a guess and I suggest you contact LG at http://www.lg.com/us. My best guess is that it is not "region free" or has an international format!

I do not have the international version but I would certainly think it would work,

Yes it will definitely play UK (PAL) DVDs on a US TV and vis versa. The input voltages on these models and other dual mode DVDs tend to be dual 50 to 60 HZ / 110 to 220v inputs. All DVDs players can actually be set internally to output PAL or NTSC. I would not recommend this one due to the fact it has been internally converted to play PAL and / or NTSC and is based on a model for use in Asia where a non PAL / NTSC standard is used. I would recommend the Pioneer models as a more robust versions as they typically tend to be true dual mode players (PAL / NTSC). There is a tendency for DVD players that have been internally converted (sometimes by the supplier) to fail to a default for example if converted from an NTSC machine to also output PAL, will fail and only output NTSC. But yes it will play UK DVDs.

I checked with Sony in California, and they said that the unit will work as long as the user outside has subscribed to VPN/DNS services that allows them to access US-based fee service like Netflix, Huluplus, or Amazon. So I bought it to use in Europe. Will get back to this subject if I run into problems getting this mama to work.

I was able to get it as US but I have hear of UK models showing up. Ask the seller first or buy from the sony site directly.

I hope this 28-day reply is in time to reach you. The short answer is that no, it will not work in Europe. (Well, technically, it will work, but your friend in Europe will not be able to watch it on his TV; he'd have to be satisfied with watching it off the camera's screen. Which I doubt he would. There is no easy (read not expensive) way to convert NTSC (ours) and PAL (theirs) equipment. Some expensive video editing software can convert it, but it's just too much of a hassle. In other words, send him the money and have him buy what he wants over there.

If you can get it to work at all, it may. I couldn't do anything with it. The software that came with it was only for tuning foreign TV signals, not US and not any other type of signal. I couldn't even get any response from that. The unit seemed to be completely dead.

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.

This unit claims to play all regions. I personally have played American and Chinese DVD's and BluRay's; therefore I am sure it will play UK too. It is a very fine machine that I highly recommend.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I kept feeling like it was based in the UK somewhere. The downloadable literature comes in many languages...maybe that's a good sign? Sorry I can't be more precise!

I do not know if it works outside the US. I returned it and purchased a smart tv.

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".

Hi there! Amazingly yes it does work- I thought that I would need to buy a multi region player but it plays on mine which is a sony home theatre system which is quite old :-) good luck!

There is a UK version of the flip that has PAL TV output for Europe. It just started selling a couple of weeks ago. So that one's TV output should work on UK televisions. Check out: http://www.flipvideo.co.uk/index.html For viewing on a computer, any flip (US or UK) will work.

Yes; but these are usually used in conjunction with a satellite dish, computer & internet service, must be programmed for certain satellites, etc. More info at: www.ftazeta.com -or- www.ftabeta.com Suggest you read up on them before buying in the web-sites" "Dreamlink" sections.......

Should work fine as long as you get UK maps. If you are using first in US, you need to reboot to get it to work in the UK. Reboot by shutting it off. Then while touching screen in lower right corner, turn on unit. Wait until you get reset screen. Answer and it will reboot in new locations.
