Grundig Xenaro GDP 5100 

This one was written for people who might not quite 

understand what to do {I was confused by the 5532 stuff 

and thought it was another code) 

1. Select "i" on the remote 

2. Choose "installation" [box 5] 

3. Choose "extended settings" [box 5] 

4. Choose "service menu" [box 3] 

5. Choose "dealer service menu" [box 2] 

6. A code is needed here, it's 8500. 

7. choose "system messages" 

8. Choose "on" and press the < button 

[to the left of the "ok" button on 

your remote] 

9. Go back to the "service menu" 

10. Choose "system information" 

11. With the remote, press 70307196 

[note that the number will not show 

on the screen while you do this] 

12. If you typed it correctly, a box with 

"system messages" appears and a word 

or a number will appear next to it. 

13. If the word reads "none" then forget 

the whole thing, as you are already 

region free... if there's a number 

there then that is the region your 

unit is using. 

14. Press "ok" on the remote to change 

the region. 

15. Use the down button [directly under 

the "ok" button on the remote] to

scroll down the list. 

16. Select the word "none" to make your unit 

region free. 

17. The warning you see is probably meant to 

do nothing more than frighten you, I don't 

think you can damage your player by altering 

this since it's only altering region codes 

, which have nothing to do with anything vital 

to the unit. [no worse than changing TV channels 

really]. 

18. press "i" to end. 

I'm in Australia and bought my player locally, so it 

appears that this probably works on all xenaro players. 

Grundig Xenaro GDP 6150 

1. Get into the Service Menu. 

This is not intended for home users, only for 

service technicians. Therefore you're asked for 

an access code, it is 8500 for all Xenaro 

DVD Players. 

2. Activate "System Messages" using the Service Menu. 

3. Leave the Service Menu and get into the "System 

Informations" Menu. 

4. When you see the System Infos, enter the following 

code on the remote control. Note that the player 

will not print the code on the screen, you have 

to enter it blindly. 

The code is: 70307192 

(This is the one that differs from the 5100 

model.) 

5. A system message should appear. It will not appear 

if you got the code wrong or if you did not 

activate system messages in the service menu. 

Confirm the message with OK on your remote. 

6. Now a window appears in which you can change your 

region code. Values 1 to 8 and "none" are possible. 

"none" will disable the internal check of region 

codes (i.e. makes the player CodeFree), but RCE 

titles might not work. This doesn't really 

matter, as you can change the code as often 

as you wish to match a specific disc. 

7. If you want to, you can disable System Messages 

again using the Service Menu after you changed 

the code.
