There are quite a lot of DVD players that are easily hackable - try dvdhack.com for a list of them.

If you just need a quick, cheap solution, buy the Cyberhome CH-DVD300 for $25 or so. It's easily region-hackable, with a few simple pushes of the buttons on the remote, and it plays imported discs just fine.

I've got one in the cellar, and, quite frankly, it does a better job on PAL discs than my Phillips DVP-642.

Do you have a link on how to hack it? I'd like to post this on my site for interested people.

EDIT:

if i import mine ill only be able to watch it on my pc or ill have to burn a copy with the region removed so i can watch it on my dvd player. atleast one of which is illegal 

What type of DVD Player do you have? Maybe I can help you find a hack so you won't have to buy a new dvd-player. It's not illegal to hack something you own, is it?

A few months ago I was looking for a region-free player, so, I just googled "Region-free DVD players" and got a butt load of results. Looks pretty easy to get one. I'll find out when I order one... I'm waiting to get my new computer first though.

That's the same exact site I would have linked him to. Good work!

[UnderSpaced]

Yeah, I love the videohelp website, that's where i get all my programs from, or if i need help with something. Great minds think alike.

UnderSpaced, love your avatar. second most awesome show ever!
after all this talk of unlocking dvd players. i did a google for my one (a Samsung HT-P10) and found a site that claimed to have a way of doing. being ever skeptical of things that i know enough about to know that i dont know enough to know if it will kill my stuff or not, i continued searching and found 3 different sites that all had the same procedure and code, and found none with a different code or method. that was enough evidence for me so i did it. to my amazement my dvd player still works. and is region free! thanks for the offer though UnderSpaced .

so now im off to watch Spaced on my 27" TV with surround sound rather than on my 19" pc monitor using my headphones.

cya!

No problem. No go have fun!

[Omniscia]

So you already had a region-hackable player, eh? Nice!

You have taken your first steps into a larger world.

[mousespider]

I'm just curious, but could you burn a region two dvd and make it a region one, or am I a complete moron?

[UnderSpaced]

Yeah you could, I'm certain. When I back up a movie I really like so I don't get the original all scratched up, I make the copy region-free. I pretty sure a program like DVDShrink has the option to let you choose what region you want the disc.

[Omniscia]

Granted, you also have to take into account the differences between PAL and NTSC standards, don't you? Or does it not matter with DVDs?

[UnderSpaced]

I think it does matter, but i'm no expert.
