Fortunately, if you’re stuck with a disc that you can’t play there are several ways to get around the issue.
HARDWARE: The best way to fix this is to buy yourself an ‘All Region’ player.
However, if you already have a region-specific set you can turn off the region encoding using DVD hacks. For a complete list check out Video Help or use the site to search for your DVD model to see if there’s a solution available.
SOFTWARE: The other way to do this is to copy your DVD using one of the many popular ripping programs on the market (ImgBurn on Windows and Mac The Ripper for Mac). Make sure that you set the ripping software to produce a “region all” file and then, when you’ve got a copy on your hard drive, burn a new DVD using software like Nero. The DVD you get should work in all players.
REGION 2 — Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East, Greenland
REGION 3 — S. Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and parts of Southeast Asia
REGION 4 — Australia, New Zealand, Latin America
REGION 5 — Eastern Europe, Russia, India, Africa
REGION 6 — China
REGION 7 — Reserved for Unspecified Special Use
REGION 8 — Reserved for cruise ships, airplanes and the like
REGION ALL — Uncoded discs that will work anywhere
NOTE: Note hacking players or copying DVDs is illegal in many countries while copying may be allowed under Fair Use provisions for consumers to make backup copies of media they own.
