DVD Region Coding - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Great Scott · 08-24-2003, 03:14 AM

Friend of mine asked me this one, and damn if it isn't just on the tip of my mind. Some sort of program that will allow you to constantly change the region coding of your computer DVD player. If what I'm asking violates any of the TFP charter, please delete this thread as quick as possible. As far as I know this program would only kill the stupid region restriction that the movie companies screw us with. Thanks!

google "region free (make, model). You should get plenty of ideas, or even info if your unit can't be cracked. Be careful, make sure that there are several referals that state the crack works for your exact model.

My dad used DVD Genie on his laptop when he went overseas so he could watch movies there.

Google "The Firmware Page".. you should come up w/ a page that has RPC1 code for your DVD's ROM (possibly).. keep in mind patching can be dodgy. Use at your own risk.

As for a software-based solution, I've used DVDRegionFree with perfect results (on a Windows machine). I think it combined with some other software to become DVDIdlePro now.

DVDRegionFree is perfect but you DO have to pay to register it. It's downloadable as trialware and wikll only play 15minutes of a movie before shutting down.

Threre are cracks out there for it, or you may be able to KaZaa it.

Mr.Deflok · 08-25-2003, 12:30 AM

Of course there are but we don't want to go about promoting that sort of thing on the TFP.

That's why I didn't post a link
