I am international and live part of the year in South Korea and the USA. My DVD Rom is programed to Region 1, so I recently bought the "DVD Region Free+CSS Free" program to watch my region 3 and Region 4 DVDs. When I run the program and play a DVD, it takes no action. Sometimes it says "Media Read Error." What's the deal? I emailed their support site and have heard nothing back from them. Anybody else have similar problems with this program?

Been using it for years without issue.

I've been using it for a couple of years with no problems.

If you have an older DVDROM try www.videolan.org/vlc too.

I'm using Anydvd which I find works much better. Since it works at the driver level.

Depending on the DVD drive -- ie. any MatSHITa drive (IBM Thinkpads, etc) -- DVD Region Free can't hack the encoding on discs that come with CSS on a number of different series of that drive. I'm not sure if there's a firmware way around it.

You shouldn't have a problem with older multi-region discs, and even a number of more recent ones, depending who makes them - ie. Asmik Ace R2 Japan, etc. But many HK dvds now seem to come with encoding, not to mention the UK, etc.
