DVD region

2007-03-22 Thread Severin Crisp
Is a DVD that I burn from my DVD recorder a Region 4? Likewise, what region comes out of iDVD or Toast 8 and my G5? Is there a way to look into a disk and find the region? The only way I can think of is by forcing a region change in my computer and see what reads, but no way for that?

The region code won't be inserted unless you do it on purpose. It's really a form of copyright protection that is used to control when and where things are released. You may need to think about PAL vs NTSC though, unless he is going to play the DVD on his computer. cheers Jude s a DVD

In addition, DVD players currently sold in Australia (and for the past 18-24 months or so) must be multiregional. I'm not aware of being able to detect region coding by looking at the disc itself, but if it's a legitimate (store bought movie / tv series / music etc.) DVD on the back cover
