Region coding Problem?

Region problem?

I am having playback problems on my stand alone Sony dvd player. It complains that my dvd+rw that I just burned is outside the play region.

I have an MPEG1 video, originally a british show. It has been re-encoded to NTSC.

I pump the file through TMPGEnc DVD Author program.
Burn w/Nero 6.xx onto a DVD+RW dvd disc.

Plays back fine on my Minket 1810 portable. It is set for region 1 playback only, ya know, the default setting.

Will not playback on my Sony DVP-NS315 standalone dvd player. The Sony complains that it cannot play back the dvd due to "... area restictions".

Why?

I have googled around to no avail.

Thank you for reading/your help.

does it play other dvd+rw media or dvd+rw videos okey? or is it just this one that doesn't work?

Both DVD Players play other videos fine/no problemo.
