Dvd Region Codes - Asus DRW-0804P User Manual

DVD region codes

DVDs and DVD players are regionally coded to protect the DVD industry
from piracy and unfair promotions. For example, a DVD encoded for
Region 1 may only be played on a Region 1 DVD-ROM or DVD player.
Regional codes on DVDs are optional. All DVD players can play DVDs
with no specified region code.
Follow the instructions to play a regionally-coded DVD on the drive.
1. Check the region code of the DVD, then insert the disc into the drive.
2. When the DVD playback prompts you to enter your country/location,
select a country/location within the region code of the DVD. Refer to
the map and table below.
You are only allowed to change your country/location up to five
times. This limitation makes the drive adaptable for use in many
regions while maintaining compliance with RPC-II regulations.
The ability to switch from one region to another is not an ongoing feature. Set
the drive to your local region to avoid incorrect setting.
