3. press the right-arrow button until you reach the preferences section of the setup screen; 

4. press the 1 3 8 9 keys in that order; a region picker will appear; 

5. press the up/down arrow keys to pick a region; 

6. press the play button to dismiss the region picker. 

I've used this hack about five times to switch between regions 0, 1, and 2. So far it works great! 

Note that this player is probably the same as the Sumvision N820, so this hack will probably work on 

the Sumvision as well. 

Also note that the TV type setting on the device is set to "Auto/Multisync" by default instead of NTSC. 

I've noticed some reports of video problems with new players right out of the box, and that might be 

why, since most Americans don't have TVs that can do Multisync. 

If you have such problems, try switching the setting from "Auto" to "NTSC". The setting doesn't affect 

what kind of DVDs you can play, just how they get output to the TV.

can alleviate this problem by changing the "picture mode" in the secret menu 

until you find a setting that works.

Go-Video DV 2140 

These are the full instructions on how to copy the files mentioned above onto a CD - it seems to be for 

the LG5000 series but I tested on DV1240 and it worked fine. The MacroVision hack above did not 

work - anyone have one for that? 

"This hack is supplied by LGRegionFree@yahoo.co.uk 

This is the multiregion menu for the DVD-5000 and some DVD-6000 Series LG DVD players. 

Follow the directions exactly. 

Firstly you will need to download this zip file (5KB size)http://www.area450.co.uk/images/LG5000.zip 

Once downloaded, unzip the file and follow these instructions, supplied by Andy : 

Step 1 

Download the file lg5000.zip by clicking on the link above. 

Step 2 


You will need Winzip or Easyzip as the file you have downloaded is in a compressed state or 'Zipped 

up'. Open the file lg5000.zip then extract or uncompress the file kpjc19_1.dvd to you hard drive in say 

your 'Mydocuments' folder. (Here is the confusing bit) it will create a directory in your Mydocuments 

folder called RMTM0000, this you accept and go with the flow. 

Step 3 

You need a CD writer to burn or write (another familiar term is formatting the disc) a new disk which 

will copy the files you've just extracted or uncompressed ie RMTM0000. 

Step 4 

You need CD burning software like Easy CD Creator, Nero Burning Rom or CD Clone 

Step 5 

Buy that CD-R disc to burn to. Now I've read the text in the file about not using a 700mb capacity CD- 

R but mine worked. For information, I used a Memorex CD-R 700MB 24x from Staples (24x means 

the speed to which data can be transferred or read). This speed I think is the key to success not the 

capacity or size of the CDR. 

Step 6 

Using the CD burning software you need to create a Data CD not audio etc, and add the directory 

RMTM0000 from your Mydocuments Folder in Step 2. That's all you need ! As the real file is 

automatically copied over as well. (If you've not used Nero or Easy before, there are instructions on 

the main Area 450 site relating to Sampo DVD players, but the same principles apply: check the 

second and third pages of the article here http://www.area450.com/firmware/burnfirmware.htm ).*** 

When burning the disc do not use DirectCD *** 

Step 7 

Switch on your player and TV and insert the newly burned disc. When prompted select 0 for 

multiregion and then ENTER, power off and you're ready to go !

Philips DVD-963sa 

First you have to issue a special IR command RC6, codeset 4, key 235 (decimal). Then the rest of the 

code should be entered normally. So the code is 

RC6 code 222 222 005 255 PLAY 

You can send the RC6 command using a certain type of programmable remote control. If you want to 

know if it can be done using your programmable remote, you'll have to find out yourself. I don't have 

the means and time to find out if a certain type can be used or not. The ones I know the RC6 command 

works with, are listed here. 

• OneForAll (URC7560) 

• OneForAll (URC4300) 

• Palm (V) 

• Philips Pronto 

• Philips SBC RU880 

OneForAll (URC7560) (many thanks to Allan Verth) 

The RC6,4,235 code is can be sent using a OneForAll universal remote. To do so: 

• The remote should be set up to control the DVD (setup code 0539). 

• Then press the DVD button 

• Press the Magic button 

• Press 085. After the 085 the familiar dashes on the front panel display should appear. 

• And now enter the code (if you want, you can do that with the standard remote): 

222 222 005 255 followed by PLAY 

OneForAll 6 (URC4300) (many thanks to Kevin Morris) 

The RC6,4,235 code is can be sent using a OneForAll universal remote. To do so: 

This Remote does not do DVD commands natively. I (that means Kevin) was about to buy a One4All 

with the DVD button when I remembered the One4All website does remote downloading. So....I found 

there is a way to change the AUX2 button to DVD button. 

1. Goto www.oneforall.com. Select the European English site 

2. Click on "Product Support" at top of page 

3. Click on "Universal Remote Controls" 


4. Click on "One for All 6 "....at bottom of page 

5. Click on "Internet Download" 

6. You need to Register to gain access, takes 30 secs, password arrives in mail 

7. Click "Next" at bottom of page 

8. Select from "Laser Disk Players" --> "Phillips -1" (This is what contains the Phillips DVD 

codes) 

9. Click "Submit" at bottom of page 

10. Follow instruction on screen on how to program your remote 

11. Click "Next" 

12. This page tells you how to "test" which code will work 

13. My Phillips 710 was the "7" key 

14. Bingo, now the remote can be used to program the RC6 

Philips DVP 642 

1. Turn on the player. 

2. Open the tray. 

3. Press the following sequence on the remote: 

7 8 9 OK 0 

4. The number 0 will appear on the lower left side of your screen. 

5. Your player is now region free! Put in a DVD and enjoy! :) 

NOTE: The 0 in the sequence above represents the region code. 0 = region free. If you want to change 

your player to just a specific region code, replace the 0 with the region number you want. 

Palm (V) (many thank to RsstX) 

You don't have a One4All remote? Are you a Palm owner? Well, in that case this is your lucky day. 

Using the famous OmniRemote software from Pacific Neo-Tek it is possible to use the code. 

OmniRemote is the application changing the Palm into a programmable remote control. 

Using the correct pdb file, which can be downloaded here, it is possible to use the RC6 code. When 

you use the pdb file, you will see a Omniremote screen with the "secret" key. Press the "secret" key to 

change the DVD player's display into the famous dashes. You can now enter the code with the 

standard remote:

Sony Playstation 2 

The Japanese Playstation 2 is only meant to play Region 2 NTSC movies on DVD. However, there are 

several tricks you can use to enable playback of Region 1 NTSC movies. 

The Playstation 2 can NOT play any PAL movies, regardless of the region coding. Well, at least we 

have never heard of anyone who have had any success. 

There are two versions of the DVD driver, and you must use a different trick depending on which one 

you have got. 

If your Utilities disc have "Version 1.01" printed on it, you have the new driver. If you Utilities disc 

dont have a version number, you have the old driver. The actual driver is located on the 8M memory 

card that came with the playstation. If you want/need to, you can download the driver from the utility 

disc to the memory card. 

Region hack for the old driver: 

Method 1: 

Hold down L1, Circle, and Select while booting until movie starts 

Method 2: 

Press in L3 (the left analog stick) straight and hard until movie starts 

Region hack for the new driver: 

1: Start the PS2, enter the Browser 

2: Insert DVD, wait for the CD icon 

3: Select the CD Icon 

4: Press Square and keep it down 

5: Press Circle and keep it down (Do not release Square, you should now be pressing two buttons) 


6: Wait for the DVD menu 

7: Release the keys 

8: Start the movie with the play icon or the movie start icon

Zenith DVB-312 

OK, finally i made it !!! 

While reading some other hacks for Zenith DVD players here (just search for Zenith) I come alonge 

the following link: 

http://www.area450.co.uk/images/LG5000.zip 

unzip the file and burn the new directory on a CD (even a CD-RW is ok) and put it into your 

DVB312... 

This is originally for an LG5000 player but works on other Zenith players as well - so on mine! 

It's so easy and works permanent :-) 

...and the VCD hack published in this thread works well also: 

My original code : 55 53 00 45 14 55 64 00 

I changed to : 55 53 00 47 14 55 64 00 


Good luck guys!

Zenith DVB 412 

VCD and SVCD playback enable for the DVB-412 

Basically the same hack used for the DVB-312 works, with a few notes. 

1. Power up unit with no disk in the tray 

2. After "no disc" shows on the front display, press PAUSE on the remote 

3. Press in order: 1, 4, 7, 2 on the remote (short keypresses). A new screen will show up, EEPROM 

settings with a green background 

4. Write down the EEPROM string for backup/restore purposes in case you screw up. My string was 

55 53 00 45 02 55 64 FF (compare with the default string of the 312, which is 55 53 00 45 14 55 64 

FF). 

5. To enable VCD playback, move the cursor to the "45" (4th group of characters from the left; use 

the remote up/down arrows to move right/left) and enter "46" or "47" instead, then press ENTER to 

commit 

6. To enable SVCD playback, move the cursor to the "64" field (second from the right) and enter "FE" 

instead. To enter "F" press "6" on the remote and keep pressed. To enter "E" press "5" on the remote 

and keep pressed. After you're finished entering "FE" press ENTER on the remote to commit 

7. Press PAUSE on the remote to exit the EEPROM screen 

8. Power off, then power on again the player 

9. It now plays SVCDs and/or VCDs depending on the codes you entered. 

The final EEPROM strings with both VCD and SVCD enabled are: 

55 53 00 46 02 55 FE FF and 

55 53 00 47 02 55 FE FF 

(either works) 

NB the replacement of 64 by FE was in the past wrongly labeled as Macrovision hack. That's not true. 

What it really does is enable SVCD playback. If you only do the #5 above, you'll only get VCD 

playback. If you only do the #6 above, you'll only get SVCD playback. If you do both, you'll get VCD 

and SVCD playback. 

(SVCD playback was especially important to me because I have several hundreds of them - mostly TV 

shows recorded on my TiVo, then exported to the PC and converted to SVCD) 

The other hack for the DVB-312 also works on the 412 (see the configuration screen): 

1. press SETUP on the remote 

2. Go to "TV Aspect" and move the cursor to "16:9" 

3. Press in order: 1, 3, 9, 7, 1, 3, 9 on the remote, then press ENTER 

The info showing on that screen for the DVB-412 is: 

Model: Zenith ZV8020001 

Region: 1 

Chip ID: M3355A-B 

Servo ver: S101_43180 


Microcom ver: V1.50A MP 

PROM: 55 53 00 45 02 55 64 FF 

Factory reset... done... 

(the PROM I listed above is before the VCD/SVCD hack)

Zenith XBV443 

down load from this link and burn cd 

it will work on zenith xbv443 i did it on 6-13-04. 


CD burning 

(extract zip file and burn 

1) File System must be "ISO9660" which is standard 

2) Folder Structure : RMTM0000SCARLETkpjc19_1.dvd 

=> already in this structure 

How to run in DVD player 

1) Insert CD and blue screen should come up 

Code "#" 

2) "0" for code free 

Enter "0" and wait 1 minute, press pause, wait one minute 

3) Take out CD and Power off/on 


I tried scottyi's hack using the LG 5000 series CD image on my Zenith XBV443 and it did not work. 

However, he is correct that the Zenith DVD players are really rebranded LG models. 

I found a website (http://lgregionfree.tripod.com/) that has a different CD image for LG 6000 series 

players. I tried that and it works, my player is now set to region 0 and has played region 1, 2 and 4 

discs. 

Here is the process: 

1) Download http://lgregionfree.tripod.com/6000.zip 

2) Extract the ZIP file, which contains a Readme file and a directory named RMTM0000 

Www.fantasticproducts4u.co.uk 

or

3) Using a CD burning program, burn the RMTM0000 directory to a CDR, making sure to use the 

ISO9660 file system instead of the default Joliet. Finalize the disc. 

3) Turn on the player and insert the disc. The Region Test Menu screen should appear. 

4) On the remote, press your desired region (or 0 for regionfree), then press Pause. 

5) Eject the CDR and turn the player off. 

6) Turn the player back on and enjoy. 

NOTES: 

a) I did not need to wait a minute between region selection and pause. 

b) On some players this hack causes the buttons on the player itself (not the remote) to stop working. I 

can confirm that on the XBV443 the player buttons continue to work.
