I bought one a couple of days ago as needed a multi region player and couldn't wait for one to be delivered - good buy I think.

I read the member's posting on this about it being multi region capable with the code intstructions as the member stated in the post, but when I went on to the tesco website and looked at this dvp player, it says in the features spec that it is NOT multi region capable.

I just want to clarify and make sure before I buy it.
Thank you so much!

According to this, yes it does work. Most likely Tesco are obliged to say that because it's not multi-region out of the box.

Pay a little bit more and get one that upscales and plays mpeg4

Philips do some excellent models with hdmi/scart

2. Press Setup on your remote control
3. Using your remote control, highlight but do not select Preferences menu
4. Press the 1 button on your remote control.
5. Press the 3 button on your remote control
6. Press the 8 button on your remote control
7. Press the 9 button on your remote control
8. Press the 3 button on your remote control
9. Press the 1 button on your remote control.
10. Using the Up and Down arrows on your remote control select 1 for region 1, 2 for region 2, and so on (numbers go up to 6), or select 0 for mult-region playback
11. Press the OK button on your remote control
12. Press the Setup button on your remote control
