Probably, some users had to face the situation when some discs did not start on their DVD-player. For example, you took a movie from friends, but it did not start on your player. The point is that the producers of the DVD format have "divided" the world into several conventional zones. Discs bought, for example, in one of the countries of Western Europe, in the CIS countries will not start. In theory, this was supposed to limit the distribution of pirated copies of discs, but only added more problems.
Necessary
Philips DVD player
Instructions
Step 1
After all, the disc can be purchased abroad or borrowed from friends who bought it in another country. Discs from other zones are also imported to the CIS countries. And the impossibility of viewing it, to say the least, outrages. But fortunately, the problem is solvable. All you need is to decode your player, and then it will read absolutely any discs. There is no universal way to decode the device. It all depends on the specific model. First of all, you need to find the code with which you can set multizone. This can be done in several ways.
Step 2
The first way is to ask the dealer where you directly purchased your turntable. Very often they possess such information, since the phenomenon when a player is coded for a certain zone is not uncommon, and customers of stores often turn to them for such information. The second way is to find information on the Internet. As a rule, on the Internet you can find not only codes for most player models, but also detailed instructions for decoding them.
Step 3
As noted, the decoding method depends on the specific player model, but the decoding principle for many models is approximately the same. As an example, we will consider the decoding of Philips brand DVD players. Turn on the TV and then connect the player to it. Turn on the device.
Step 4
Remove the disc tray from the player. When the tray is removed, dial 99990 on the remote control, then press OK. Wait, a notification will appear on the TV screen either about disabling the regional zone, or setting the zero regional zone. In any case, your player will now read DVDs regardless of the regional zone in which they were recorded. A lot of models can be decoded in this way, you just need to find the correct code.
