• CD/DVD drive reads all formats of DVD and regions

• How to make DVD player region free player on Satellite L40 - 14Y

  I can not play region 1 DVD on my player. (PowerDVD, windows player) The usual 5 times have been used.

  I've heard of software to make your region free player, but I don't want to ruin my notebook or losing my warranty.

  So is it a software or the ability to solve this problem, or do I really need to get an external hard drive?

  Another question, is my Toshiba DVD player flashes for a while that, for no reason.

  Unfortunately, it is not possible to make the DVD player region free legal way if you have already changed the region 5 times code.
  Now the region code is locked.

  Of course, I have read on various websites that it would be possible to remove this protection from the region and to unlock code region but to my knowledge, this is not legal and very risky.

  Such tools flash the firmware, but it could damage the master/slave/c-salt settings and then the BIOS does not recognize the disc correctly. In addition the player couldn't handle CD/DVD media correctly. In this forum, you will find some discussion on issues

  So to answer you question. using this 3rd party software would be detrimental to the training and would negate the warranty.

  Good bye

• DVD different region on a Satellite Pro M50

  There is a DVD I am wanting to buy, but unfortunately it is only available with region 1 encoding, and I'm region 2. He'd still be on my M50? I looked at the specs and employment mode, but it does not say (or if she is I do not understand it :() and I can't find any other region 1 DVD to test it.) Any help would be appreciated.

  > Would it play on my M50?
  No, you will not be able to play this DVD if your DVD player has been set to region 2 code.

  Usually, you can change the DVD region code 4 times. Then DVD region code settings are locked, and you will not be able to change more.

  On my laptop, I can change the codes of region as follows;
  Go to my computer-> properties of CD Player / DVD-> Hardware tab > brand CD/DVD drive button and press properties-> DVD Region

  Here you can choose the necessary country (region)
