Philips BDP2100	12 user region code comments	September 04, 2019	Post region code/hack comment
	Regionhack for the Philips BDP2100 is the same as for the Philips BDP3000.
	I have just done this as I bought the player and it wouldn't play UK region dvds.It now does after applying the following. 1)No disc in tray 2)press 'HOME' key on remote control 2)press number keys '1389310' The player now plays any dvd,i have not tried a bluray disc yet as I believe another code is required.
	Just want to add that I've just tried this hack and it worked. Was unsure it would, as there is no indication on the screen that you have entered anything. I'm in the UK, attempted to play a US dvd and it said it was restricted due to region. I applied the hack above, put the dvd back in - and it played! Thanks
	This doesn't work in the U.S. At least I couldn't get it to work on the BDP2100 I have. Tried everything to get it to work and never did get it to play anything but region 1 disc's.
	I bought a refurbished unit at Fry's electronic, Sunnyvale, CA, on 3/30/2014 I tried the hack below and it works. However, the player did not give ANY indication that it received any signal, no confirmation of any kind. I wish I had tested the player BEFORE, since I am not sure that what I did did anything. It was refurbished, and may have already been region free. 1)No disc in tray 2)press 'HOME' key on remote control 2)press number keys '1389310'
	Just wanted to confirm the aforementioned code of '1389310' does seem to change the DVD region to '0' Multi-region. Also found that if you; 1. Power on with no disc in the machine, 2. Press 'HOME' 3. Enter 8520 The BDP2100 will display a small information window, giving the software version in use AND the region code. As per previous poster, if you try this first it can confirm that the hack has worked. Thanks for the help
	See DVDs in Dk
	The last digit of the code is 0 but if you want to lock it back to region 1 you type 1389311 or set to say region 2 by doing 1389312 etc. 0 just allows all regions to play. This is the fastest loading of DVDs I have ever seen on any player this is a pretty quick loading player. If you turn it on press the home 'house' button, then 138931(0-6) then 8520 to verify the DVD region. Mine is set to DVD(0). But if some odd reason on 0 it gives you the region error and your DVD is a R4 DVD do the procedure for changing the region but use 1389314. Good luck and hack is still good in the current firmware 2.24.

	Hack works like a charm!

New hacks = New region code/hack comments since your last visit.

We have talked about Blu Ray and DVD regions a couple of times now, and the conclusion that we can easily have is that nobody likes this Blu-ray/DVD region thing. With the Blu Ray and DVD region restriction, you can only play a Blu Ray or DVD with the same region code as your Blu Ray or DVD player. If you accidentally buy a DVD that has a region code that doesn’t match your player, then you’re going to have to accept the fact that you are not able to play the disc on your machine without doing some extra works. This is really bothering, right? More than one friend of mine has asked me, “how do I make my Blu Ray player region free?” Well, today let’s talk about how to make your Blu Ray player region free, or how to play a different region DVD without making your Blu Ray player region free. There are 3 solutions that I am going to introduce today, and I hope at least one of them can help you in your life

Solution 1: Find hacks for your Blu-ray player

Making A Blu Ray player region free isn’t something easy. The good news is, it is indeed possible to make your Blu Ray player region free through some technical procedures. I say it is possible because it’s not guaranteed that you can hack your Blu-ray player to make it region free. Some Blu Ray player manufacturers leave a back door for removing the region code, while others don’t allow users to heck their players at all.

The way to hack a Blu Ray player could be very different from model to model. Fortunately, there is a place where you can find exactly how to hack you are Blu-Ray player to make it region free, and that is the VideoHelp forum. Go to the forum, and then go to the DVD hack section. All you need to do is to type in the model of your DVD or Blu Ray player and then search for the hack exclusively for your model. If you are lucky enough, you will find very detailed instructions to unlock the region code for your player. Just follow the instructions and you should be able to make it within a couple of minutes.

Solution 2: Remove disc region using software

The second solution that I am going to introduce today is to work on your disc instead of your machine. As you might already know, different DVD or Blu Ray players have different working mechanics, if you ask “how to make Samsung Blu ray region free” and “how to make lg Blu ray region free”, you will certainly get different answers. It is really not easy to find a way to make you are Blu Ray player region free without learning the technical details of your Blu Ray player itself. If working on the Blu Ray player is so hard, why don’t we jump out of the box and work our way out with a different approach? Why don’t we move our sight from the machine to the disc? Making your disk region free is much easier than making your Blu Ray player region free, and you can achieve the same result which is making you your Blu-ray player play your Blu Ray disc successfully.

There are 2 approaches to remove the region code of your Blu Ray disc. If you only want to remove the region code, then you can use a DVD copy program to make a perfect copy of your Blu Ray disc, only without region code. This is the first approach that we’re going to talk about. the second one, on the other hand, can not only make you obtain a Blu Ray disc copy without region code but also can make you have a digital version of your original movie. now let’s talk about these 2 approaches separately.

All you have to do is to download an all-inclusive media player that can play Region protected Blu Ray material.

The All-inclusive, all-region media player that I am going to introduce today is called Leawo Blu-ray Player.
