Stuck on region 3 DVD

A friend used by mobile phone and played sopme region 3 DVD. The DVD is now stuck on region 3. I live in Europe and cannot now play my European DVD.

Can I reset the DVD firmware to allow me to return to region 2?

DVD is SD-R2212.

Control Panel-> system-> hardware-> Device Manager-> player dvd/cd rom-> toshiba dvd sd - r2212-> dvd region-> Select your country in the geographical area.
And take care of the remaining authorized changes.

    Hello

    As in a formal way, I can tell just service partner, maybe. On the net you can find some region free applications, but this way is certainly illegal.

  • Mac Mini (El Capitan) play region 2 DVD?

    I would buy the version 2 of the region of Attenborough, "life on Earth." Then my Mac Mini El Capitan race play these DVDs?

    Assuming that you are in the USA (region 1), you will be asked to change the code of area on your disk before it will play. When you place a disc in region 1, you will be asked again to set the region code of the drive. You can do this five times. Wherever the road is located on the fifth change, where it will be permanently.

  • Can satellite L300 - I play region 1 DVD?

    I'm having a slight dilemma and would like to request a preview. I am owner of a Satellite L300/L300D and I have my eye on a specific DVD set, however its marked as region 1. I would like to know if he would play on my laptop without any requirement must be respected (basically I question whether it is multi-region).

    I have not fiddled with the operating system (it came with Vista) or drive DVD Toshiba delivered pre-installed, etc..

    Hello

    Theoretically, there s no problem to change DVD region because you can change it in the properties of the Device Manager > CD/DVD drive.

    But don t forget the region code can be changed 4 times and then it is not possible to s more, but in Device Manager you can see how many times you can change it.

  • Region of DVD player is locked on my Satellite L40

    Hello

    I have Satellite L40 series laptop and my DVD drive is now locked. My region is the Bulgaria. The model of Optics is Mat * a Uj - 850 s. I read a lot of forums and Web sites but cannot find.

    Please if anyone has this firmware, I will be very grateful.

    I guess you know very well that you cannot change region code so often you want. Because of this it is reminder and inform the user how many times it can be done. The last code used will be defined as a default value.

    To be Pierre you can not change now legal way. Of course on the net, you can probably find a tool for this. I assume that you need code 2 for Europe.

  • Satellite L310-D4011: how to reset the DVD region to 0 setting?

    Dear all,

    I have a Satellite L310 D4011 I bought recently in which I installed a DVD playback software.
    I run Windows XP. One of my friends played a video clip of the United Kingdom (Mccartney Live at red square) in the DVD player and the original region setting that was 0 with 5 remaining changes, went to 4 changes remaining and the area is now set to 2. I am in India where the region for DVD is 5. If I change to 5, I lose another change option.

    I don't want to leave my DVD ROM stuck 0 left options and some other areas.

    Can someone give me advice to reset the region back with five remaining options - as it was when I bought the laptop?
    I'll be very grateful. The salesperson who I bought the laptop will be able to get back to factory setting?

    Best wishes

    Hello

    I think Toshiba has nothing to do with it. To protect the film industry and interests all laptop manufacturers offer optical disk drives where you can watch movies with country code but only 5 times. The last chosen region code will be set as default. So if you have more than 4 codes there is no reason to panic. Just continue to watch movies in your favorite area.

    I'm 100% sure that Toshiba service or the vendor where you bought your laptop will say that they have nothing to do with it. In drive properties you have set out to clear how it works.

    In any case, you can try to contact them and ask for help.

  • Fixed wrong region DVD

    I'm done with my fixed on region 1 DVD. I remember that the box warning but assumed that I could fix it somehow (by erasing the hard drive or something). Now it's stuck on region 1. Does anyone have experience of this / how to fix it?

    Hello

    Well, as far as I know, that you can change the DVD region settings only 4 times. After changes remaining reaches zero, you can not change the region.

    HI Thomas,

    You can select the desired region by going into the properties of your DVD-ROM (right clivk on icon workstation).

    You can only change the region 5 times before it becomes permanent how he will stay on the last selected region.

    There is no legitimate way to make your drive "set".

    Kind regards

    Whenever I thought I left a change of reference, but when I say yes I want to make the change, that is not the case.
    I tells me that I must use a region 2 media (do) and the administrator (this is me - I'm the only user).

    I now regret letting my nephew use the laptop for watching a region 1 dvd.
    Am not longer under warranty but have whateverhappens coverage of curries.

  • 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)

    do you have any suggestions?
