Will this play all region Blu-Ray &amp; DVDs?

Upon first plugging the player into my computer, I was asked to choose a region, and was told that I could change the region up to 5 times. So it will play disks from all regions, but you'll want to be careful how often you switch back and forth, as upon the fifth change, you'll be stuck with that region permanently (apparently).

It accepts all Blu-Ray regions. You need to look in the user manual to switch the Blu-Ray Region manually. It switches automatically for DVDs. So yes it play region B but you need to switch it manually.

It can play all regions with a pass code, that is easy as pie to get, and use only once. Be aware, even though this player can play PAL discs it does not do PAL 2:2 cadence, so you will see a poorer picture quality if upconverting(just like crap 3:2 pulldowns on NTSC, jaggies) If you are dgital and needs this feature you need one of the OPPO's with the Fajouda video chips...the 981, or 971. Hope that helpsStill great player :)

It should. I bought this because it plays multi-regional DVDs. I don't know where my 'foreign' DVDs came from. They do play fine. You could call Orei. I think they're in Brooklyn, NY.

Yes it does. It will play Pal also. I haven't played any other region DVDs. There are instructions for other regions but I haven't used that option. Nice player. Hope this helps !!!

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.

Yes, so far, I've played discs from Regions A and B. While the player automatically determines the region of any CD being played, it doesn't do that for blu rays. For these, one must turn off the unit, press either a "1" (for A), "2" (for B), or "3" (for C), then power on. No big deal.

Dear S Mitra, my unit (BDX1400) will NOT play european (PAL) DVDs. It ejects them with the message "Wrong Region"Am I doing something wrong? How do you make it work?

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, it does. All blu-ray players should be able to play both formats. You just can't play a blu-ray in a standard dvd player.

It will pay every region DVD but on a multi system TV only. You can also use your current TV and use a video converter for the other regions. That will also work. This unit is great and very flexible.

Almost every Blu-ray or DVD player from Sony will only play discs for the region it is sold. Only a modified Sony player will play multiple regions , which will of course void its warranty.

Yes, this player is region free and plays both DVDs and Blu-ray discs from any country. You don't have to make or change any settings. You simply insert the disc from any country and it will play the dvds or discs from any country on any TV.

It is supposed to but mine never did play blu-ray discs from other countries.

Yes! We only use ours to play DVDs from Europe - it should work just fine :)

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.

I was told by Samsung that it would play region free blu Ray discs but it will not play discs that are region b. I think it was misleading. To be honest there are no region free blu ray players out there I have tried them all. Hopefully this answers your question.
