I found the hack for the alba 45 also works on the alba dvd50blk bought from tesco for £39..99 the hack is as follow's open then press :3 3 0 8 8 1 for region 1 then shut the draw hey presto it's multi region well at least it play's A NIGHTS TALE which is impressive as it is a RCE disc as well. I have also found that if you use an R1 disc again it may not play it. if this occur's turn it off then on again it seems to play them again with no problem's | |||

the hack above for the ALBA 50blk does work but if u choose 0 instead of 1(region) then it can play all discs all the time. Just tested on Finding Nemo(r1) and pirates of the carribean (r2) | |||

VCD on the Alba dvd45. The chipset will play vcd but some strange engineering prevents this on this particular model. You can fool the software. Play a standard mp3 music cd for a minute or so and then swop the cd for a vcd movie. Hey presto it plays. | |||

For Ian (09/12/03) re: Black and White picture. Most often it's just that only one scart input into your TV will handle full RGB scart, the other is component video. Try switching the scart from the DVD to a different scart input on the TV - it's worked for me. | |||
