Multiregion DVD Problem
 

Hi,

I live in the UK and have everything set to UK on my system.

I can play region 2 DVD's fine and have DMA enabled, but I can't get any region 1 DVD's to mount.

Any ideas?
Do I need another codec?

Cheers

This is most likely a firmware problem, not a Linux
problem. What make/model is the drive? My ASUS
for instance (if run under windows, with the native
software that came with it) will lock itself to the region
that was played 4 times first.

I currently have 4 different DVDs active under Linux
(on 3 different machines) and all of them play all regions
just fine (after I reset the ASUS, that is ;}) ...


Cheers,

Don't know what type of drive it is. I have a Compaq Presario R3145EA Notebook.

So how do I reset my drive?
