RZ500 vs. VFR 1000 race DVD

#1 Post by Paul K » Thu Oct 13, 2005 9:53 am

I am the "lucky" winner of the ebay auction of the video of the 6 hr race in Australia. Unfortunatly, it does not play on DVD players in the USA. SO, if you want it, it cost me $75.28 USD. Ouch, especially since it wouldn't play on my player. I will sell it to anyone who anyone who wants it. Contact me, I take paypal, and will ship to you on payment of the amount I paid for it..... <p>Paul K

Hi Paul,<p>The easiest solution probably is to modify the player to be code-free. Then you shouldn't have any problems playing the DVD.<br>Or you can wait until I get my copy of the DVD (on its way from Greg Mcguiness). I'll be happy to make a region-free copy for you.<p>/Steen

Hi Steen<p>I just bought a new Sony DVD player last night to be sure that I had a good player to see it on. I checked the manual to see how to make it code free, but it didn't say. I am no way geek enough to be able to modify it....... How do you do that?<p>Paul K

You can search on google, there are quite few pages with "hacks" usually combinations of buttons to press on the remote. Here is an example:<p>http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks.php?d ... arch<p>You might want to read the faq (probably some warnings...). The DVD drive and one of the video players on my pc plays all regions.<p>Scott
