DVD player question
Is this player able to play multi-region DVDs? Samsung DVD-P421 Is there a way to make it play region2, 3, etc. dvd's? I tried looking at 7thzone.com but it doesn't seem to show up anymore.

And it's shows nothing under Multi Region, so I would saw no. (Unless you want to chip it or something)

As a side issue, though you may know this already, Region 2 and 4 (Europe and Australia) use a different video standard than us. It's not enough for your player to be Region free, it has to be able to handle PAL to NTSC (PAL is what Eur./Aus use, NTSC is what the USA/Japan use) conversion too.
Might want to check out the Malata player. Do a search here or in International for more information.
