DVD Region Protection Coding (RPC):

The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVD-video discs (such as movies). Currently, the motion picture industry has divided the world into different regions or zones that correspond to the regional markets intowhich the motion picture industry releases movies. Simply put, RPC codes are placed on movies marketed throughout the world, based on the region of the world inwhich they are being sold. These RPC codes help control and prevent pirating of new movies into other motion picture regions prior to their true release dates within those markets.

The DVD Writer supports RPC phase II. In the RPC-2 mode, the local code can be changed by users. RPC-2 is selected by default for The DVD Writer.

You can change the region code up to five times via an MPEG application.

Please contact your dealer or local SAMSUNG representative if you wish to change the local code more than five times.
