Tecra A6: DVD-RAM UJ - 841S region code is locked

After playing several movies DVD of my homeland and USA the DVD player is locked... Is this true, that the only way to get t reclamation for the Germany operation, is to replace the unit?... .or at least the ROM of the device...

Thank you very much for the quick responses!

Hello

No, it is not possible to
Is that you can change the region code 4 or 5 times (I don't remember) and then the setting is locked and it of not possible to change more legal way.

Of course, you will find many tips and tricks on the internet how do I change the settings I would not recommend to follow these guidelines but can damage the drive.

  • Question about area with a rug code * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841 S

    Hello!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite with a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S. Someone knows something about the firmware for this? I tried to use dvd43 and VideoLAN, but it does not work properly!

    I guess you do you want to Flash the firmware to remove the region code of the DVD player.
    Am I wrong?
    Don t do it! It risky s.
    If you update the drive with the wrong firmware or is not compatible the drive is not able to read/write to the media; CD and DVD.
    In addition, the use of the incorrect firmware will avoid the reorganization of the training by the BIOS.

  • Tecra A8: Mat * un DVD - Ram UJ - 841 s is not read / burn any disc

    Hi all

    I have a laptop Tecra A8 with Mat * un DVD - Ram UJ - 841 s. This device is not read / burn any disc. However, Mat * one bed the recovery CD at startup.

    I tried everything: I deleted the registry entries (lower and upper), I uninstalled Ant again once the driver installed... but it doesn't work. Any help?

    Best regards

    Hello

    In addition to the fact that you can boot from the Toshiba Recovery CD, I think that it s a problem of training material
    I think it's a matter of calibration of lens readers possibly the lens can not calibrate correctly in the right position of s, and this is why the drive can't handle the inserted media.

    This could be the worst case, because this fault is repairable by replacing the drive.

    It's weird, music CD's fine, game DVD and data DVDs no problem but if I want to watch a recent movie, my dvd drive is disabled. What a weird copy protection? I bought this partially to watch movies when the main TV set wasn't available and I feel ripped off the coast. Old DVDs are fine (the monster inc etc).

    CD/DVD TEST (D:\) PLAYER MADE FAIL

    Could you tell us what films (title), you have a problem with?
    Perhaps you have trouble with the more recent Double-Layer (9 GB) DVD.

    Of course, it may be a copy protection, too cause some movies using a very unusual way to make sure that they play on a "locked region" disc.
    Using any software on your laptop that are able to "Rip" or "simulate" a DVD? If so, that the existence of such software could prevent the normal functioning of the specific movie titles

    Many films are also not not not to work on the readers of 'Region free '. These DVD movies check if your player is able to play a 'region' that is different than the current DVD that plays, and if they do, they will not start.

    Give us some comments over on that and perhaps we can find the reason for your question.

    You can do the following: go to download drivers of Toshiba Europe site and check if there is an update of firmware for this specific player. If so, I strongly recommend you apply and check if it works.

    If the didn t of the firmware update worked later you assumed that the reader is defective and must be replaced.

  • Equium A100-549: Mat * un DVD - Ram UJ - 841 s is not accessible

    Hello
    I have read many topics all about problems with this unit, makes me regret buying the laptop, but for now, I'll have to try to fix it. My DVD device, I cannot access it if I put in a blank DVD or CD-ROM drive. When I click on the camera by computer or of the auto run pop-up menu, an error message appears saying "D: is not accessible incorrect function". If I insert a disk with some data on it it reads it quiet easily (DVD and CD-ROM of so it's not the calibrator laser). After reading works around the problem, I did the following:-

    -First I tried accessing the page of toshiba and reloading the drivers, without success

    -J' the continuation of many shooters of boredom, unsuccessfully tried

    -J' even tried formatting my laptop and reinstall windows (incidentally this violates my warranty and insurance?) and subsiquently once again, without success drivers

    I need help, and not only its desperate thank you very much!

    Hi André,.

    First, reinstall your system from the recovery CD will affect your insurance or guarantee. You can reinstall as often as you want.

    As for you problem with your optical drive, the first thing to check is that the option "Enable the Reording CD on this drive" is checked in the properties of the device option. Just right click on your optical drive in ' my computer and then select Properties option then the "recording" tab

    Finally, you shouldn't have to download all the drivers for your scanner, Microsoft base drivers are generally quite adequate. Usually, the drivers of Toshiba DVD-RAM support formatting of re = writeable disks and not the functioning of the drive itself.
