Looks like Philip (anya) got serious competition...
Well...Anya's selling branded players at a very good price....only problem is that it's 110v and region lock.
As for this player, I have a feeling they are the same as teh Austrailian Bluray players, since they came in DVD regionfree.
May I request those who bought to try the remote hack posted below:
1. Switch on the player
2. Open the DVD door
3. With the remote enter 9735
4. A menu list appears on the left
5. Scroll up or down for the region setting
6. Select Region setting and then move right into the list of available regions
6. Select region 0 for multiregion
7. Exit set up
or
1. Turn on the player.
2. Press the home/setup button and release. Enter 9-1-1-3 on the number
pad.
3. "Configure player" appears in the wheel menu to the left of the screen.
Using the up or down arrow button on your remote, navigate to it and press
enter.
4. Three menus appear on a blue background in the centre of the screen:
DVD Region, BD Region, and BD Profile. Select the one you want and press
enter.
5. A grey menu appears in the centre showing the various regions. Navigate
to the one you want and press enter.
6. Exit the grey menu by pressing the left arrow key, then press it again to
exit the blue menu. The screen will appear as it did in step 3 before you
pressed enter.
7. Open the drawer and put in your foreign disc. Wait a little bit. When it's
ready, the disc's main menu appears. Play the disc like you would any disc.
8. Consider yourself fortunate: You're now able to play foreign DVDs
AND foreign Blu-rays on your basic North American player.
