Need region code for Toshiba SDV398 dvd

Hi, I live in Canada and got a dvd set with a region code 2-4 . This does not work on my Toshiba SDV398 wich is only programmed to receive region code 1 dvds. I have a SE-R0323 remote control. Does anyone know the code hack for this specific model?
Thanks for the help.

  • Thank you, but they do not have the answer for that model. Will have to keep on looking if there is a solution.

    I think they posted it to show you that there is no hack for your player.
  • 1. Open the tray
    2. press the following sequence using the number keys: 98790 (this is equivalent to the code 9879 with the zero at the end representing all regions)
    3. Press Close Tray - there should be a sign on the TV screen saying something like 'Region set to 0'
    4. Turn off the DVD player for 5 seconds
    5. Turn on the DVD player.

    OR

    Switch On DVD player without disc in machine
    Press Enter
    Press 8, 4, 2, 6 and 9
    Press Enter
    Player should turn itself Off. If not switch it Off
    Switch player back On
  • Unfortunately these were the first two codes I tried with no luck.
    Apparently there is no hack code for my model.
    Thanks for the help.
