DVD region codes

DVD region codes help protect the contents of a DVD. The world is divided into six regions and specific

content can be viewed only in the appropriate region. For example, content for Region 1 can be viewed

only in the U.S. and Canada. WinDVD is also region–specific.

You can verify the region code of the content by looking at the region code symbol on the back of the

content packaging.

Region code Region

1 U.S., Canada

2 Europe, Middle East, South Africa, Japan

3 Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Korea

4 Latin America, Australia, New Zealand

5 Former Soviet Union, North Africa, India

6 People’s Republic of China

Start WinDVD by inserting the DVD into the drive. The region code is automatically set and you can

view the movie. This is the initial setting.

After the region code has been set, if you insert a DVD with a different region code, you are prompted to

change the region code. You can change the region code from your initial setting up to four times.

After the region code has been changed from its initial setting four times, it is fixed and can no longer be

changed. Thereafter, you can play DVD content only from that region.

To display the region code status, click the WinDVD Properties button on the WinDVD user interface.

The General tab contains this information.

To change the region code, do the following:

1. Turn on your computer and start your operating system.

2. Click Start.

3. Select Programs.

5. Click the Properties icon to open the Properties window.
