    VobEdit or IFOEdit - I can't remember which one - will make DVD backups region free.

    As will CladDVD and DVDdecrypter, they contain a box with the option to check it region free or not.

    Any that you author yourself will be region-free. :c) You should be fine.
    There's no place like 127.0.0.1

    Actually it depends on the authoring application.

    Does that not create region-free from self-authored files?

    Info offered was based on info supplied. :c)

    Yep, tmpgenc dvd author makes region free dvds.

    (I checked it, "Disc Regions are 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8" with dvdinfopro )

    But remember NTSC and PAL problems...most PAL players/TVs can play NTSC but many NTSC players/tvs can not play PAL.

    It looks like Region 3 would be Southeast Asia and East Asia (including Hong Kong) and NTSC.

    Don't know if you'd consider it for just the month, but one site that sells Region 3 DVD movies recommends this player for PAL to NTSC.

    http://www.hkflix.com/hardware/sampo_612n.asp

    Does not mention any TV requirements.

    Perhaps something similar would work for you while you're there. :c)
