DaeWoo DVD 5800

[DarkBuu]

I had ordered this dvd player from ebay and it is supposed to be Macrovision free and Region free when I got it, it was none of the above. After doing some reading I read that the firmare is supposed to be upgraded to do the macrovision, so how do I know if the person i got the dvd player from actually did the firmware upgrade? is there a display button or something that will tell me? if the firmware hasnt been upgraded should i do it myself or actually go through all the trouble of sending it back to the person? Thanx for anyhelp at all. oh yeah i almost forgot it dosnent play dvd-r's.

well if its not hacked and you paid more than $100 then you got burned, Daewoo 5800 are at Sams club for $89 and the hack is avaible for free on the net at

Following his instructions and burn to a CD-R or CD-RW

If you want DVD-R's to play on it after you hack it with the 5800 bios then you must do it again with using the 5700 bios.
