StephenM Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Can anyone confirm what Region DVDs are playable and has anyone heard of any hack to make the DVD player multi-region?
cevu Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 haven't tried any other regions so not sure if its even region locked. in case it is and you find a hack please post for the rest of us. :-)
Bluey Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Can anyone confirm what Region DVDs are playable and has anyone heard of any hack to make the DVD player multi-region? I just tried a region 1 and a region 3 DVD and both gave a region code error. I haven't heard of any hacks to overcome this.
Brent Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 im pretty sure they are region 4 "as australia is region 4". why does it matter, how often do you play DVDs from overseas? Besides, you can only play them when the car isnt in motion, whats the point?

Mind you, the way the traffic is in Sydney these days, you can just whack on the emergency brake and enjoy the video whlst stuck in the traffic. :)

The advantage of using the music DVD is you get the full surround sound of the ML system, not just the usual stereo for music CD's, MP3's etc.
StephenM Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 It would certainly be nice to be able to do to the ML DVD player that you can do to most other DVD players and that is unlock it to play all Regions. The only difficulty is knowing is exactly who is the DVD manufacturer that the ML system incorporates. There are any number of sites around that provide unlock codes for DVD players, just need to know the manufacturer.
