How can I know what region code a dvd
disc is? The DVD region code is usually specified
on the back of the individual DVD packages, either with a Regional
Coding logo of a globe with the region number superimposed over
it, or specifically spelled out. For example, while currently-released
New Line and Warner DVD titles use the globe logo & number scheme,
MGM/UA titles state: "This disc has been encoded for Region 1: The
United States, U.S. Territories and Canada." In the cast of Lumivision's
discs, they are labelled "Available worldwide," which means that
the discs contain no regional coding and will play on any players
in any countrys.
Why I can not play my DVD movie?
maybe your DVD disc is from a region limited by your DVD-ROM. Your
DVD-ROM can not read the DVD from the region.

region limited by my DVD-ROM? You may try a DVD
