Hawks Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 As the title says, I want to be able to play region 2 dvds on my laptop in the US, without the change your region code 5 times and then get stuck thing. I have seen varying reports of this being as simple as using VLC or requiring you to copy the DVD. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's wanted to do this, so what's the easiest way? Will Win7 let me change my region to 0 and will my region 1 dvds still play? Reason: I want The Aristocats in German. And potentially other movies eventually as well. Mostly I just want the Aristocats, and it costs the same in German/English as it does in just English, so... edit: I get 4 changes before it locks. But I do have two virtual drives and could theoretically add as many as I wanted, each with one region, and just make sure the disc gets mounted to the right drive, right? sig by Soa.....tip.it times.....art & mediadeviantart/flickr/last.fm/steam/twitter/tumblr/youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Easiest way would probably use codecs + VLC or something. Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordkafei Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I use VLC to play DVDs from multiple regions with no problems and no switching region codes.

jasignhagj Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 VLC ignores region locks, and is an all around better player than wmp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
