• Error when you try to play a DVD: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because the disc prohibits playback in your region of the world. You must obtain a disc that is intended for your geographic region.

  copy a group of photos w/music (Smilebox program) on dvd;

  After following the instructions of SMilebox to burn "images set to music" on DVD, to the attempt of DVD playback, I got following error message: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because the disc prohibits playback in your region of the world. You must obtain a disc that is intended for your geographic region.  We live in the Washington area. I didn't know that DC was considered an unusual geographic region?

  Hey nongeekbetty,

  The DVD is encoded for a different region. Most DVD readers only works with DVDs that are coded for the computer was purchased in the same region. So if you buy a DVD in one country and then try to play on one computer from another country this DVD could not play.

  Step 1:

  Make sure that the DVD region is set to the appropriate region:

  a. Click Start.

  (b) in the search box, type Device Manager.

  c. right-click on the DVD drive.

  d. right-click on it and select Properties.

  e. make sure that the region will be resolved.

  Also temporarily disable User Account Control (UAC) and check it out.
