Help: Region Free Player not working - Blu-ray Forum

benderal · 09-19-2015, 12:08 AM

I bought a region free Samsung bluray player around 10 months ago. I've never had a problem with it until today. I haven't watched a 3D bluray from another region in like a month or longer. It worked fine then.

Well, I bought a new bluray from Region B and my machine is telling me that the machine can't read it. I tried two other Region B discs and i finally got one to work. However, when i put the new disc in I get the following message: "Unfortunately, this disc will not play due to the region code setting of the player".

Does this mean the region free hardware is fried or do I have to adjust a setting?

Is this a hardware mod player?

Did you get it at Bombay/WI/220?

Yes to all.

So...you bought 1 player from Bombay, World Imports and 220?

Sounds like you have three customer service calls to make.

My bad. I misunderstood. I thought the 220 was referring to volts.
No, I bought from Bombay.
