Regional code

Since DVD films are not normally released in all parts of the world at the same time, all DVD players have a specific regional code. Discs can be given a regional code. If the regional codes differ between the player and the disc, playback is not possible.

DVDs must be marked 'ALL' for all regions or '2' for region 2 to work in this machine. If the DVD is marked with a different region, it cannot be played in this DVD recorder.

The number within the globe represents the region. Regional code 2 represents:

Europe, Japan, South Africa, Middle East (incl. Egypt).
