Unlock Your DVD Region Code
3
Technically, there is no region zero disc or a region zero player. There are only discs
with all regions and all-region player. Some players can be "hacked" using special
command sequence with the remote control so that they change the region or play
all regions. Some players can be changed by a physical intervention ("chipped") so
that they can play discs regardless of their regional codes. This usually voids the
warranty in most countries but it is not illegal because only the CSS license requires
player manufacturers that their players have region codes. Many retailers, especially
those outside North America, sell players that have already been modified to play
more than one region or in some cases they simply provide instructions on how to
get access to the "secret" region change function, which is already built into the
player . Here's an interesting side note: On 7 Feb. 2001, NASA has two multi-region

Some discs from Fox, Buena Vista / Touchstone / Miramax, MGM / Universal,
Polygram, and Columbia TriStar contain program code that checks whether the
player has the correct region setting.( There's Something About Mary (There's
Something About Mary) and psychoanalysis are two examples.) began in late 2000
Warner Bros. that the same active region checking, to enter the other studios were in
use more than one year. They called it "region code enhancement" (RCE, also REA)
and it has caused quite a stir. RCE was first observed in such films as The
Patriot and Charlie's Angels 3 used (Charlie's Angels). "Smart discs" with active
region checking will be on code-free non-players that are set for all regions (FFh),
but to manually switchable players, where you can change the player via the remote
region, according to the current disc. You may not work on automatic-
switching players that recognize the region of the disc and hence their change. (It
depends on the standard defined region of the player. An RCE disc has all region
information, so that the player does not know on what change he is. The disc queries
the region setting of the player and stops playing when the Player of the false
returns. A default on deceptive RCE Region 1 discs with Region 1 The Short
Preview of Region 1 disc is the most automatic-switching players to region 1 and
thus enables them to play an RCE disc.) If an RCE Disc one player with the wrong
