Default Region Code Setting

By default, all MAX 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- AVM, you may need to change the region code setting in order to read DVDs from other regions.

Each DVD-ROM drive adheres to the (CCA licensing organization) requirement that the drive must be set to a region specific code to play authorized DVDs for that region. The requirement allows for the DVD-ROM region code to be changed a maximum of five (5) times in a drive. The fifth time, the region code is "locked" permanently in the drive. This procedure is mandated for all DVD-ROM manufactures that carry the DVD logo and applies to all DVD-ROM drives used throughout the MAX system.

Since the AVP is set to Region 1 as the default factory setting, there are 4 additional changes allowed. (for a total of five allowed).

Refer to the Setup Page section on page 46 for detailed descriptions of all of the options available via the MAX-AVP Setup Page.
