1. Open the DVD player disc tray
2. Press 9,9,9,9,0 on the remote control (wait a second between key presses)
3. Close the DVD player disc tray
Notes:
the above code will turn your player into what is called "region-free". If you require
the player to be a single region, for example region 1, then simply repeat the process
and replace the "0" with a "1". This may be required if you have trouble playing
DVDs purchased from outside the UK that have Region Code Enhancement technology on
them. These titles are in a minority and you will find a substantial amount of titles
will play without the need to change region. Please note that switching between regions
can only be performed a maximum of 25 times before the player is locked on the 25th
region selected. Our recommendation is that you set the player to region 0 and change
to a specific region when the need arises."
I don't know if the 25-time limit applys to newer Philips/Yamaha firmware, but I
was able to successfully play RCE DVDs after making it multi-region compatible. So
choose 0 and leave it alone! In case some of you are curious, I already tried 99999
and it didn't change the region whatsoever. So just stick with 99990 and you're ready
to go!
