    It's not even a copyright protection mechanism, there's absolutely nothing in law about region locking or unlocking.

    I did a search for techsonic dvd unlock and loads of sites came up - if you haven't tried that there are certainly a few that would be worth a go

    I see what you mean, this model is very hard to find any information about.

    Have found this incase you didn't, you got nothing to lose so worth a shot.
    With player in stop press on your remote: 
    up, up, down, down,        right, left 
    a menu with region code selection and macrovision on/off        will appear
