I am very disappointed by this machine. It is said All Regions, but is not, and can't find any keys to unlock it. False advertising.

I've read people complain of this, but I cannot find where on the write ups this player says its multi-regional.Both the Sony website and the users manual say explicitly this player is only for region 1.

Jorge .. I almost forgot. If you have some Region 1 DVDs, play this on the HD-A35 and be surprised at just how good the HD-A35 is at upscaling your standard Region 1 NTSC DVDs. I particularly recommend you try Star Wars 2 & 3. I think you will like what you see. =) Now, if you like what you see and want to do the same with your Region 4 DVDs, consider adding the Oppo DV-980H or Oppo DV-981HD to your list of DVD players. The HD-A35 will play only Region 1 DVDs and Region Free DVDs. My DVD collection consist of Region 1 NTSC, Region 2 PAL, and Region 3 NTSC DVDs. This is why I have the Oppo DVD player in addition to my Toshiba HD DVD player. Jorge .. I almost forgot.

Hi Rebecca -- I'm an owner, but not an expert. A quick Google search on "region 1 DVDs" took me to the following page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_region_codeIt looks like this Panasonic player will play Region 1 DVDs, assuming you purchased it in the USA, Canada, Bermuda, the Caribbean, or US Territories.I do not know if Panasonic (or anyone else) offers codes for playing other regions. Hope this helps!

Sony does make a model of the DVP-FX930 which is code free, available from220-electronics.com and samstores.com, but for about twice as much. BTW, the Pioneer DV-220V is a great code free, single disc DVD player, but isn't portable....

I don't know. The Region 2 DVDs played without any problems. I hacked a previous Yamaha that I still own, but again, only played Region 2 DVDs. I like British detective/mysteries so that' s why I want a Region 2 player. I own some Japanese DVDs but Japan is in Region 2.

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

I only buy regions codes for my country, the USA. Any other regions will NOT play. That's why I always double check to see what code the DVD is in. I also do not buy many BluRay DVDs because the formats are sometimes annoyingly slow to function.

Yes! That's its best feature. In fact, I just ordered another Region 2 DVD from the UK of a film not available in Region 1 in the U.S. I love it! Definitely worth getting if you don't want to be limited to what's available in this region.

Yes! It's because all PS Vitas are not region locked. You can also use the NA PSN as well.

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

The Sony will play European Blu-ray discs, provided they are region free- a lot are. To see if a European Blu-ray disc is region B locked or region free, there are sites that test Blu-ray discs to see what there coding is. It is not possible to make the Sony Blu-ray player region free for Blu-ray, just by changing codec or software.

I apologize. I looked up my past orders to see if it had a number- to no avail. I can tell you BOMBAY Electronics is the seller and the description is ALL MULTI REGION FREE (0-6) DVD player by Toshiba. Whatever you do..do not get a sony..it I s not- and I ordered that previously and it was broken. Hope this helps.

Hi LC,Sony DVP-NS55P DVD Player supports remaining time of the current title/chapter. -Vincent

I'm very very disappointed. My Oppo BDP-80 just arrived, and I can't get it to play any Region 2 DVDs from Europe. I must have misunderstood the "universal" aspect of this player because the sole reason I bought it was to play both Region 1 and Region 2 DVDs. I am not technically-savvy enough to open and start picking at the circuitboards to make it region free. If someone has a very easy fix to make it region-free, please let me know. Otherwise I"m sending this item back to Amazon.

1. Don't put DVD in player. 2. Press "Setup" on remote. 3. Press "&gt;" to "Preferances" menu. (If DVD is in player, the "Preferances" menu will be skipped over.) 4. At that screen enter 138931 on remote. 5. Region code screen is displayed. Press "^" to "0". 6. Press "Setup" on remote. 7. Press "OK" on remote.
