Problem with DVD Video
I inserted a DVD Movie into my laptop, but it says the following:
âThis DVD player has been fixed to region 2. Only those discs that support this region can be playedâ
Does anyone know whatâs the problem?
I have all the formats available that support DVDs and VCDs like Power DVD, WMP, Winamp, GOM, VLC, Friendly DVD.
Anyone suggest what to do??????????

Does anyone know from where to download DVD region (like compatibility for all regions like region1, region2, etc) free software????

Answer
This DVD player has been fixed to region 2. - This means that the DVD player in your laptop is set to region 2 (Europe, Japan, the Middle East, Egypt, South Africa, Greenland )

Were you switching regions in order to watch dvd's? You can only do this a number of times before it locks you into one region.



This may help you...

DVD player problems. Copy protection??? WTF!!!?

wesellwaym

Whenever I try n play a dvd it comes up with an error that says something like copy protection error between drive and decoder and player or something like that. Then, even more stupidly it doesnt have this problem when I actually do play pirate DVDS!!!! Whats going on here? Is there a codec I need?

Answer
you can switch to another dvd player program, like VLC player, it is free and able to play all dvd and regular video files

you can also rip the dvd to computer in reuglar video formats, thus you can play it in windows media player/quicktime
You can use wondershare dvd ripper platinum, it is able to rip dvds to computer in 1:1. it is also capable to save dvd to computer in regular video format.
Not like some ordinary DVD rippers, wondershare can rip even copyright protected DVDs, so just give it a shot.
