Hi Rod,
You can play the DVD, any region, using the VLC player. You evan rip and remove
the region code by using Handbreak and VLC combination. The VLC app needs to be
in the same directory as the Handbreak app.

Is there any way to play DVDs from different regions without invoking that
horrible little dialog that only gives you a few chances to change the DVD
player's region code?

Hi...
It still seems stupid to me that the $80 DVD player from JB Hi Fi comes
with a firmware patch to remove the region coding in line with the ACCC
ruling, but that $X000 Macs restrict you from playing the DVD's you
bought legally from overseas. Sigh.
Thanks,

as far i know if you put in a dvd mac book ask you for region change
the drive stores that new region based on the dvd put in
can't you put in a dvd which is set to region 0 the drive may
accept this as new region, result: it should play all dvd's w/o

Hi Shay,
I agree, this is silly to me, and from how I understand this Region Limits
Apple imposes, is illegal in Australia.
In Australia most (all?) Standalone DVD players will play discs from any
region. It's the DVD drives in computers that observe region locking.
Its illegal to sell
Hi James,
How I understand the setting of the DVD Region Code, if when you first purchase
a new Mac, you insert a Region 0 DVD, which presumably will set the drive as
Region 0. You would be able to play Region 0 DVDs, but when you go to play a
different region DVD, say Region 4 (which

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.

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
