Stoopid newbie question - Tevion DD1018 Hack

[bpuppygrrl]

I'm sorry to be such a pest, guys, but I need to get this wretched DVD recorder to play more than just our Aussie DVDs! I can find heaps of Tevion hacks, but not for this model. Anybody got one I can try?

TIA!!

Nope, that one doesn't work

Anything else I can try?

G'day bpuppygrrl.
ALDI sell, in our area, the Medion brand.

I'm pretty sure it's the same one with a slightly different case.
I unlocked a Medion with a 320 gig HDD, for a friend.

Here you will find Medion/Tevion unlock codes.

Search the web to find which is the best match. (as in specifications)
Try a couple.

If it stops, FOREVER, I accept no blame. 8)

After a bit of googling, it does appear that Medion does make Tevion stuff, but I can't see any Medion products that are similar to this Tevion one.

Arggghhhh!

[pcspeak]

Please. Post the Tevion specs and I'll see what I can find

[bpuppygrrl]

There's a whole page of stuff here, I'm not really sure what would be relavent to you. It's just a DVD recorder, it doesn't have a HDD as so many of them seem to. What would be the most helpful to know?

[pcspeak]

Good question.
Maybe if you are able to scan the page(s) and upload as an image.
I must admit, it's not looking good.

I hadn't realized there was no HDD for recording to.
I've been looking at the wrong devices.

[bpuppygrrl]

Oh, crikey, this is not going well. I don't have a scanner. I'll take a photo of it in the morning when there is enough light.

Just installed a Tevion DD10181 DVD recorder. I have an issue with the video picture output being desaturated (washed out picture). Anyone else?
