    I have a Philips DVDR3305 recorder. Does anyone have the code for me to set it to Multi-Region? Thanks

    Hi Becky. This is from the websitehttp://forum.ecoustics.com/bbs/messages/2/61714.html

    This is how you make a Phillips DVDR 3305/05 UK machine region free:
    Philips DVDR3355. How to make it Region free.
    Answering: http://forum.ecoustics.com/cgi-bin/bbs/show.pl?tpc=2&post=457559#POST457559

    A) Turn on the dvd with no disk inside, wait until no-disk is displayed, Press "0009" + press "ok"
    on the screen you can now see the information of region and version

    B) Turn on the dvd with no disk inside, wait until no-disk is displayed,
    Press "0086000"
    Press "ok" button

    Now the DVD is regionfree ( region 0)
    (The last digit in the code is the region
    for example 0086002 is region 2)


    Although the model number is different, I have the 3305 and I can asure everyone, that this "hack" works, and it works brilliantly.
    I'm Glad to be here... At my age I'm glad to be anywhere!!
    I'm not losing my hair... I'm getting more head!!

    Does anyone know if it is possible to make a Toshiba XDE500 Region Free? I have a lot of DVD's from America that I would like to play here.
    Thanks

    The only thing I can find is this:

    - open the tray
    - type 2403960
    - press 9
    - close the tray
    - turn the player off and back on again.

    Is this a safe code or one that may bu**er up the DVD Player?

    I'd expect it will either work as intended, or it won't and nothing will have changed.

    I'm pretty sure they don't have self-destruct codes, so the worst that'll happen is it won't work.

    I have bitten the bullet and entered the code and my Toshiba XDE500 works fine:D
