Hello there,

I have some Region One DVDs I want to play on my PC.

However, my WMP and Power DVD playing software seem to be locked to Region Two.

Does anyone know of any free region-free DVD playing software that isn't a 'trial run' bag-o-poo?

Cheers.

I've used this before, worked well...

Well as it states in the linked posting ... it is old crap ... from yr2002 ....
Just go to a free XP/Vista download page and get the latest codecs ... but you may need updated software,
last time I had an region error issue I think they had only just started using the wheel .....

I just torrent software .... its free .. but may be illeagal ..... !!! oooh...

Talking out of your arse there mate.

This is a hardware region coding issue in the DVD drive, all the codecs in the world wont help,

next time you want to slag off a post get you f*cknig facts straight.

Have used DVDidle in the past with good results http://www.dvdidle.com/dvd-region-free.htm

The other way is to re flash the firmware of your DVD hardware with region modded firmware, but does depend on exact model of drive...allegedly.

Get yrself some decent quality kit then coz yrs is too old

As posted .. re-flash the bios ... upgrade firmware/software & codecs .... but ONLY if the reader on the dvd drive is up to it .... so get yr brain in gear when u think yr clever ...

or just get some software that runs all ... like Nero 6.6 onwards ..
