I hope this is the right forum to ask this.

I've been looking for a way to make my Alba DVD72 player region-free. I've search estensively, but no luck so far.

And here's the strange thing - most websites that sell the player have it advertised as multi-region. Yet my one is certainly NOT multi-region. The handbook says it's region 2 only (yet the tech specs in the handbook say "signal system = PAL, NTSC, MULTI"). I've tried playing a region 1 disc to no avail.

So I was wondering if:

1) There IS an unlock code - and if so, does anyone know it?
2) Can it only be unlocked by chipping?
3) Is it totally unlockable?

It's all very strange. I seem to have a player that's region 2, yet is advertised as multi-region.

Can anyone help?
