    Hi, is there anyway that you can get the DVD player in the 8204 to play any region dvd's. I was living in the UK when i bought the 8204 and have already changed it a couple of times using the 5 times thing, But i have now moved to New Zeland and all the discs are different again with a mix of asian and american codings

    Any help would be appreciated
    cheers

    Something like AnyDVD should fix this. There may be free alternatives.
