PostRegion code hack posted by PioneerIR, February 22 2023:


Could be done with a Pioneer service remote but those are rare.

Can be converted to region free using a USB infrared device, or older computer with built in infrared, using keycode info for Pioneer DV575A.
In the Pioneer DV575A how-to find the section by KyriacosMETAL then copy from "# Make your Pioneer" to "end remote", paste all the text into a file and save it as pioneer.conf or pioneer.cf

These instructions are for Windows XP and IRdroid USB infrared transmitter but should work for Windows Vista, 7 & 8 (probably not 10) and any USB infrared device. Windows versions after XP or newer PCs might require a virtual serial port COM driver.

Locate and download Winlirc 0.9, irtoy.dll, and pioneer.cf, put all these files in the same location.

Connect IRdroid to a USB port, boot XP. Run Winlirc, first time running it shows an error message because it needs to be configured, click OK. Setup window opens. If it doesn't, there should be a gray circle along the bottom row in the icon tray. Right-click and choose "Toggle Window".

Set "input plugin" = irtoy.dll, click "Plugin Setup", set Com Port to COM3, OK. If Windows uses a different COM port, check it with Device Manager in Control Panels, then set Winlirc's com port to that number.

For "Remote Configs" browse to location of pioneer.cf file, click OK. In the main Winlirc window, set "remote" = pioneer and "code" = region.

Sometimes a full shut off (NOT a restart) for the computer is needed so it "sees" the configuration file when it boots up. This time the WinIRC.ini file should already be there and the previous settings restored. If not, repeat the earlier Winlirc configuration steps. After booting, IRdroid's LED should be blue, indicating it is ready.

Turn the Pioneer player on. Aim the IRdroid at the player and press "Send Code" in the Winlirc main window. IRdroid's blue LED should go out and the player should turn itself off. If nothing happens, try restarting windows, then running Winlirc again.

The Pioneer player should turn itself off when it receives the IR signal. When turned back on it will be region free.
Took a few tries but eventually converted region 2 Pioneer DV310S to all DVD regions.
