    Hi guys.

    I just bought a new DVD Burner, and I would like to keep it region free (my old A05 was stuck on R2). I dont really like downloading Firmware, unles it is an official release from the Hardware manufacturer. I have installed Unnoficial Firmware updates before, and had drives crap out on me and not work at all, so Im not really keen on this option.

    Ive been looking quite alot at AnyDVD (http://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvd.html) and DVD Region+CSS Free (http://www.dvdidle.com/dvd-region-free.htm).

    Which one do you guys reccomend? Are there any other alternatives that I could try apart from these two?

    Thanks in advance.
    Yours,
    Beev

    I've an old version of DVD Region Free (v1.1 I think), and it works well for me.

    There's a "Region Free Tools" category in the "Tools" section...
    There is some corner of a foreign field that is forever England: Telstra Stadium, Sydney, 22/11/2003.

    Carpe diem.

    If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.

    AnyDVD would be a viable solution for you, provided you are willing to pay for it. Like Daamon stated, I'd check the region free tools section first (maybe a freeware solution available) & then clubcdfreaks.com/Pioneer forum for a solution.
