LG DVD Player.

[jackies]

I'm hoping somebody can help me with the following problem. I have an LG DV4721P CD/DVD player, bought in Australia. I recently spend alot of money on a DVD that I purchased from America. When I put the DVD in the player it comes up ' Check Regional Code' . Is there any way of getting around this? I think the DVD player is automatically set to region 4.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

Try this - courtesy of www.dvdblokes.com....

"1. Turn Player on with no disc inside
2. Press pause on the remote control
3. Then key in 3 1 4 1 5 9
[CODE -- will then be displayed on the player display]
4. Key in desired Region number
[0 for Auto Multi Region, or manually select 1 to 6]
5. Then Press Pause again
6. Turn off player and wait 5 seconds, then back on again.

If you are having problems getting the hack to work, try pressing stop on the remote before you press pause for the first time.
