Looking for an affordable Region Free Player - Blu-ray Forum

Would prefer it to have Wifi and a PAL > NTSC convertor. I was looking at this model:

Does anyone have that player and have any feedback? From reading the other threads on Region Free players, I assume the region switching is a manual process. How tedious and annoying is changing the codes?

Would really love some feedback, thanks!

Dang, no one?

Usually you change it once and you never change it again. I have a Philips model set to 0 and it doesn't require anything after the initial change.

Is there a master region 0 for Blu-Ray? I thought there was only A, B and C?

I have several that are DVD only and it was set to 0 and I bought a blu ray/DVD region free recently and it was still just set to 0 once.

The one before that was this one: http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Bdx125.../dp/B0081UWBWQ

You're talking about DVD, Blu-ray is totally different.
There is no "region 0" for Blu-ray so you'll have to switch the player every time you put in a different zone disc.
