Setting the DVD Region Code

If you want to view a DVD movie on your computer, you need to set the DVD region code. You can set

the region code when you start DVD Express for the first time. For instructions for setting the region

code, read this flyer instead of the

Online User's Guide

.

DVD Region Codes:

Regional coding is part of the protection scheme for DVD content. The world is divided into six

regions, so that specific content can be viewed only in the region where it is appropriate. For

example, Region 1 (U.S. and Canada) content can be viewed only in Region 1. The DVD Movie

Player Program application is also region–specific. You must select a region to play DVD

content. After you have selected a region, you can play content only from that region.

An

incorrect region code setting causes your computer to hang; you can recover your

computer only with the Recovery CD.

Attention

Make sure the first DVD content you play is from the appropriate region. You can verify the

region code of the content by looking at the region code symbol on the back of the content

packaging. If the first DVD you play is from a region other than the region you selected, your

system will no longer play DVD content. Recover your system using the Recovery CD.
