| Sony SLV-D900 | 13 user region code/hacks | May 01, 2005 | Post region code/hack comment | |
Turn on power with no disc inserted and tray closed Push on remote: Subtitle - 3 - 8 - 7 - 6 - 7 A message will appear on the display Push on remote: 9 Done PS.If you turned off power (not standby), you need insert this code again. This hack only for SLV-D900, not for SLV-D100 | ||||
How does this work? | ||||
Is it working on SLV-D300P??? TXH | ||||
This works OK for the SVL-D900GS. It works when the numbers do not come up on the screen as you type them in. Use the "subtitle" button to toggle visibility on/off. After entering the 3-8-7-6-7 then the current Region code is shown in the top left corner of the screen. Enter '9' for multi-region and you're done. | ||||
Hi I have tried to use the hack mentioned above on the SLV-D900 with the original enclosed remote control but there is no sign of this working. After checking with the store they say that it can only be hacked if you use a remote called RMVL 700. At least this is the case in Sweden. There is no need to change any hardware it is only a software reprogramming. | ||||
A comment to Michael in Sweden: You can use the original enclosed remote controll to hack SLV-D900. There is no need to use any other remote controll. You power on your DVD and your TV. NB! You will see the region code displayed on the TV and not the DVD. Use the subtitle button to make visible the numbers you enter, 38767, and the regioncode 2 (or what region your DVD is preset to) will be displayed. Then punch the button 9 and you can play any DVD records from all regions. | ||||
hi, all in reply to hack posted december 11th for the SLVD900GS this is the dvd/video combined model the power up dvd + t.v. entering the No's 38767 and then change region code from 2 to 9 and bingo regionless works great. | ||||
it got the sony slvd900g, ive put the code in fine and it reads multi regional, but its black and white, how dows it go colourful? | ||||
Just to confirm that the hack with the remote control works. By typing subtitle and then 38767 it shows the region code in use (for me 02) and I then typed 9. I was then able to play a DVD from region 1. Only problem is that it is in black and white. Anybody found a trick to get the colour ? I have tried typing 1 instead of 9 but I got the same result. I will keep searching and let you know if I find. | ||||
Hello Does this work with SONY SAVA-D900 ? | ||||
Hi all, I had the same problem that the SLV-D900 only showed me black and white pictures while playing region code 1 dvds. After changing the line out option from s-video to rgb it works great. How to: setup dvd options --> enter screen options --> enter dvd video out: RGB Line --> enter Your menu screen should change to a different color set. Leave the setup and start playing your selected dvd. The black and whíte problem should be history now!!?? (well it worked for me!!) Have fun :) | ||||
will this work on a Sony SLV-D300P thanks | ||||
Hi all, I had the same problem that the SLV-D900 only showed me black and white pictures while playing region code 1 dvds. After changing the line out option from s-video to rgb it worked still the same. Guess it is tv bassed for this color issue. | ||||
