I have bought a cheap DVD player, Technica DVD 132 (approx. €100)
and tried the hack described for the Technica DVD-222. It works.
But I can't find this player on the web and can therefore not create a link to it which means I can't add a hack for it... I was just thinking of helping someone else out there but??
The difference to the dvd-222 hack is that there will be a new menu "version", where it is possible to choose region.
I put it to 0 and it works with both region 1 and 2 discs.
The player is PAL, region 2 (or was...).
