Making DVD player Region Free/

[Invictas]

I have (quite legally) obtained the hack code to make my DVD player Region Free.
I have a few qualms about this.
Is there any risk to my DVD player in doing this.
Is it guaranteed that other region DVD's WILL play on it after it is hacked.
I get the feeling that it is "suck it and see"?

I have used the unlock code on my player for some time without any problems. If you set the region code to 0 then discs from all regions should play.

I should add that before I did it the first time the same thoughts crossed my mind, but I finally decided to suck it and see.

Is there any risk to my DVD player in doing this? Maybe.

Is it guaranteed that other region DVD's WILL play on it after it is hacked? No.

I get the feeling that it is "suck it and see"? Yes.

I've done it successfully, others haven't.

No he couldn't.
Hardware DVD player .. not a software player!

I've done it a few times and never had any problems.

No guarantees that you won't, though!

I've done this a few times too and had no problems at all.
