Default Re: Region biased dvd player

Some DVDs are meant to be used in certain regions only. To watch them you need to have a player matching the code of that region. You can change it in Drive settings by right clicking it. But remember YOU CAN CHANGE IT FOR A LIMITED NUMBER OF TIMES(MOSTLY 5). Though you may get softwares which allow you to bypass that restriction

Rip it and then burn your DVD. Most rippers remove the region code to make it regionfree and also remove the Macrovision protection or whatever else.
