Thanks to dfarry,
the second link http://www.regionfreedvd.net/player/ebench.html made the player multi region!

No problem mate... glad the link helped...

Is there any chance you could take a picture of the connections at the back... I just want to confirm/compare how similar the unit is to last years model.

And also software wise...what does the interface look like.... admittedly... the interface on the EBench is very basic.

Richer sounds are also doing the Toshiba sd120 dvd player for 29.99 if anybody prefers a known brand.

I managed to get one but have not tried it out yet. From the details on the box they play just about every disc variety invented, however they could not tell me in store (or their head office when the manager rang) if it was multi region or NTSC compataible. But if it is not I was told its fine to return it

do the remote hack (takes 10 seconds) from the link at the top of this page and it will be multi region

It's SilverCrest KH6778.

Regarding the hack stinky101. If it works, do you get the option to turn Macrovision off?

stinky101

Yes you do (and it does work!) you get to turn macrovission on off, VCD on/off and change the region. I didnt turn Macrovision off as i didnt know what that meant.

Don't suppose it plays DivX discs as well does it??

Donnie

Thanks for that S101. It's for when you may need to make a copy for the children...

The Aldi model for £32.99 plays DivX discs.

The hack from dfarry (http://www.regionfreedvd.net/player/ebench.html) works fine.

Also this player comes with a scart cable.

What a bargain !
