Setting the region code

Before viewing a commercial DVD video, you need to set the DVD region code for your DVD content.

After you install the Super Multi-Burner Ultrabay Enhanced Drive and WinDVD software, you can view a DVD movie. But first you need to set the DVD region code for your DVD content.

DVD region code is stored in the firmware of the Multi-Burner and must match the region code on a disc for the disc to play. The world is divided into six regions and specific content can be viewed only in the appropriate region. For example, content for Region 1 can be viewed only in the U.S. and Canada. You can verify the region code of the content by looking at the region code symbol on the back of the content packaging.

Table 2-1.

Start WinDVD by inserting the DVD into the drive. If the disc is a single region, the region code is automatically set and you can view the movie. If the disc has multiple regions, you will be prompted to set the region. This is the initial setting.

After the region code has been set, if you insert a DVD with a different code, you are prompted to change the region code. You can change the region code from your initial setting up to four times. You must have a single-region disc with the new region in the drive to change the region after the initial setting.

After the region code has been changed from its initial setting four times, it is fixed and can no longer be changed. Thereafter, you can play DVD content only from that region.

To display the region code status, click the WinDVD Properties button on the WinDVD user interface. The General tab contains this information. To change the region code, do the following:

1.Turn on your computer and start your operating system.

2.Click Start.

3.Select Programs.

4.Click Intervideo WinDVD.

5.Click the Properties icon to open the Properties window.

6.Click the General Properties tab.

7.Insert a single region DVD of the new region.

8.Select the correct region code for your country.

9.Click OK.
