    Have some R2 discs that I wish to copy for a friend. I have DVD Shrink 3.2, Nero 6 and AnyDVD installed and supposed it should remove the codes, but his machine wouldn't play a disc I sent. His machine is a Sony DVP-NS501P and (according to this website) cannot be hacked. Are there any instructions in any of these programs I'm missing?

    Then it's not a region code issue....it is a PAL/NTSC issue.

    Do I take it then that the NTSC/PAL encoding is not being changed. I was told by the persom who installed them that would not be a problem. . .

    Region coding and NTSC/PAL have nothing to do with each other.

    Making a backup of a disc 99% of the time removes the region code.....that is only one hurdle you must cross when dealing with overseas discs.
    Computers don't care about PAL or NTSC....but television equipment DOES...both DVD players and televisions.

    Computers (DVD drives actually) DO care about region codes but that is easily taken care by copying the disc or updating your DVD drive's firmware

    Oh and by the way....giving copies of factory pressed DVD to your friends is illegal....VERY illegal.
