Change Region
The information in this document concerning region code settings does not apply to the MMS-12S Server, since the MMS-12S does not feature a DVD-ROM drive.
The region code setting for the MAX Server’s internal DVD-ROM drive must match the region code of the DVD(s) you are attempting to load.
If a DVD is inserted that has a region code that is different from that of the DVD-ROM in the MAX Server, you will receive an error message indicating that there is no disc in the drive when you press the Identify Disc button in the Record tab.
By default, the MAX Server’s DVD-ROM drives are set to read DVDs with Region 1 encoding (for U.S., Canada and U.S. Territories). Depending on what region of the world you are installing and operating the MAX, you may need to change the region code setting in order to read DVDs.
NOTICE: You can change the region code setting on your MAX Server’s DVD-ROM drive up to five times, and no more. The region code setting is locked down in the DVD-ROM drive the fifth time it is set, permanently setting to that last region code setting. At that point there is no way to change the region code setting again. The number of resets still available is indicated at the top of the Change Region page.
The region code setting for the MAX Server’s DVD-ROM can be changed via the Change Region option in MAX Admin Menu (accessible via the Server Configuration option in WinMAX):
The number of region code setting resets still available is indicated here (Max resets = 5).

In the event that you expect to load large numbers of DVDs with different region codes, you should group the DVDs together by region to minimize the number of times you’ll have to change the region
