Re: region free blu ray player question
Those you listed are hard-coded Region-A discs that will not play on Region B or C machines. Are you sure your player is really region-free?
Which discs did you play were fine?

Re: region free blu ray player question
Those 3 discs you mentioned above are region-free, so it doesnt matter if you play them on a Region A or B machine.
Although "Braveheart" from Paramount IS region coded for Region A, and that is one you can play on your "Region B" machine, huh?
I'm sorry, but I couldnt understand the above sentence.

Re: region free blu ray player question
I have a BD80 and did the mod to make it region free (soldered a kit inside the player). I think mooncat didn't know the player can't detect automatically the region, you have to press a key to select the region before starting the player.
