The hack for multi-region from the player's standard remote control is:

Open disc drawer
Press 9 9 9 9 and then the region code you desire (0 means multi-region)
Close disc drawer

Note that you can press the 'OnScreen Display' button when the drawer is Open to see firmware diagnostic codes, including the currently-selected region code.

Yamaha seems to have upgraded the firmware and one extra step needs to be made. Open the drawer, press "on screen" and - while the machine's details are being displayed - press 99990 for R0, and close the drawer. I discovered it by coincidence - I have a European player (made in Hungary).

Start the player, eject the cd-tray. Use the original remote-control and hit 9999. Thereafter hit 0 and itīs done... This will make your Yamaha S540 region free...

It can be interesting for some users!

My Yamaha S540 has been hacked a little differently.
Before hacking:
on screen
SERVO:1001FCA8 REG:2
SD542YDV030605-540-001

If I did so:

Open Disc Drawer
Press 99990
Close Disc Drawer

occured nothing. The region remained 2.

The region has changed only after I have made so:

Open Disc Drawer
Press 99990 and then press enter/ok button (!)
Tray was closed independently by itself

After hacking:
on screen
SERVO:1001FCA8 REG:0
SD542YDV030605-540-001

I can enjoy now! Regards
