- I live in Belgium Region 2 , and I bought a Toshiba SD-P1400 in the USA and the European
movie DVDs do not work in the Toshiba SD-
1400.I have tried it several times and it
DOES NOT WORK in Europe. What can I do to make it region free? I would appreciate your
help on this matter since I've already paid for
service help on this site.
Regards,
Canio Masi

- i think there is some problem with the product
bcz

click this link

there in Features section

look for these last two lines
The SD-P1400 supports DVD Video, DVD-R discs, VCD, and CD-Audio. Despite a clear region four marking on the box, the unit we tested with worked flawlessly with discs from other regions.

this clearly shows that the player must be capable of playing all kinds of disks.

so i think the problem lies with player.

the manual for this player can be found here and you can find what you need to do within it. I will post the exact page number in a little while

Please let me know if you have any other questions

- Sorry for not getting back to you sooner

It looks like the player only plays region 1 DVDs which means that any DVDs not from the US will not work and this player can't change regions unfortunately. I would see if Toshiba will replace it in Belgium for you for one with your region. Let me know if you have any further questions or need anything else.

good luck on whatever you decide to do now


Have a Great Day!

- Like I said before, this DVD player isn't a region free player, it only reads region 1 dvds and nothing else. Your options are to only watch region 1 DVDs or to take it to a place and switch it with your local region player

[Copy and Paste from VideoHelp.com]
You do not need a disc installed.
- Turn on the player and wait until it says "No disc".
- Press "memory" on the remote (for mine, I had to select "shift" then "memory").
- Select the region number you want or 0 for all regions.
- Press "play".
- Turn off the player then turn it back on.

The player should now be set to the region you selected or be region free.
["End" Copy and Paste from VideoHelp.com]

That should work, Ekse found it at the same place or another. Videohelp.com should be in your bookmarks as it has more help than you can imagine when it comes to DVD players or all kinds, especially the undocumented hacks.

- If that doesn't work you might need to get a hacked firmware to the player. Or a mod chip but I don't know more at this time.
