Reversing Hack on DVD Player Phillips DVDR3460 | ||

| I have used the Hack on my Phillips DVDR3460 DVD player to make it take Region 2, now it will not play other regions. How do I reverse this Region 2 Hack.
Please any help. | ||

| Try the hack/code again, except this time, set it either to Region 0 or your correct region. | ||

| Set it to region 0 and it will play all discs. | ||

| Hi,
I thank you for your reply, but I am not sure what number to change. This is what I did to do the hack. Connect and turn on TV and DVD player - With no disc inserted, select ‘system menu’ on the remote control - Enter these numbers *SLOWLY* on the remote control: 5, 0, 1, 8, 0 - Press ‘OK’ WHICH NUMBER DO I CHANGE. | ||

| Probably the last digit (other Philips units are like that). But that would mean you set it to region 0 already and it should play everything except region 1 discs with RCE protection. I believe Australia is region 4. | ||

| Well, according to this page:
http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks/philips-dvdr3460/8641 ...it should pop up a menu showing the region selection after you enter 50180 (but before pressing OK). | ||

That's the way I read it at first. But I decided that what it probably meant was there would be a status page showing the region code that was selected. | ||

| Maybe. It's hard to tell without having the player around to look at, of course. :)
It probably shouldn't behave that much differently from, say, the 642, or the 5990, in theory. :) |
