What Others Say
seamless transition between regions...
I bought this item in Nov 2008. Could be the other reviewers have an older version. THERE ARE NO CODES TO TYPE IN. Pop in any dvd you want, it just plays. No drama, no technical issues. It plays regions 1-6, NTSC/PAL. And it DOES eject - just press the stop button for 5 seconds. READ THE MANUAL dude!
Highly recommended. Maybe not the fanciest player, but I'm guessing you're looking at this for the multi-region feature, and that feature WORKS.
Perfect!
It seems the DVD player I received did not need any special codes as mentioned other reviews. The player plays all my DVDs (region 1 and 5). Just tossed a DIVX on there the other day to verify operation, and it works! NICE! No complaints here.
a quick review
a good player--bought it just to see concerts (in region 2) I recently found out there were 6 regions. Only two complaints about the player--
1. No HDMI outputs
2. NOT even a S-Video ouput
Great Region-Free DVD Player with Great Price!
I've been in the market for a great quality region free dvd player for years. Since I always buy DVDs from Asia(I travel a lot), also DVDs from Japan, Taiwan, and Europe. I have a huge collection of Pal and all region dvds.
I used to have Apex DVD player which works for multi-region. But it has hummble big noise when it plays. You can even hear the disc spinning... Then I got another one Lasonic multi-region, works without noise but the remote controll barely responsive and it's very fragile...
Also I'm tired of watching DVDs on my laptop, or even some dvds you have to switch region from 1 to other then have to switch back and forth - only works for 4 times on laptop...
Finally I got a Region Free DVD player so far I did't ... Read More
DOES THE JOB
Having lived in the UK for several years, I had many DVDs from Region 2 that I got tired of watching on my notebook computer. Investing $80 (with shipping) in this nifty little machine was a great idea. Following the instructions to change the region setting to region free, (that another reviewer helpfully posted), I then inserted my disc and hoped all would be well. It was. Haven't used it much yet, and I must say that when I turn on the power the machine makes some rather disconcerting noises, but so far so good!
