Title: DVD codes
Post by: JaH on June 29, 2003, 04:00:00 AM
I saw a post some time ago here, maybe on BRAMA, about DVD codes for computers, to play movies in Eastern Europe.

I can not locate the post in the archives, anyone know about this?

Thanks.

If you are trying to patch your computer's DVD to play Russian movies, be careful.  A lot of DVDs have a limited number of times you can switch them back and forth between different regional codes.  More info (and workarounds) can be found http://forum.rpc1.org/portal.php

I have bought dvd's in Russia and Ukraine.  These play fine on both my computer dvd and my dvd player.  No codes required.
