Optical Drive question

SpecOps87 SG

Hi all,

Is it possible for me to NOT change the "DVD" region code when I watch DVDs from different regions? I'm damn frustrated as I'm left with 2/3 changes left for the region change. Need help for the following drives which I'm using: Matshita DVD-RAM UJ822S, Samsung SH-S182.

Thanks!

not advisable to do it. do it at your own risk

I never tried with any software or firmware to work around the region code constraint. I have a TV tuner card at the PCI2.3 that allows video in and all those auxilliary sheet so watching DVD in any regions with a basic DVD player (for TV type) connect to my computer and displayed through its LCD is no problem for me. Some higher end graphics card may have such connections and applications already in place so guys may want to check them out.
