Philips: DVD963SA DVD Player - region free fix
Posted: Fri Jan 21, 2005 1:58 pm
Philips players are easy to make region free. I use the pronto.ccf configuration file (downloadable from the pronto page). The pronto sends a special IR code to the player after which dashes appear in the display of the 963SA. You then type the digits and finish by pressing 'play' after that the 963SA is region free and can play disks from all regions.
procedure :
- switch on the player but without a disk in the tray.
- send RC6 4 235 code from the pronto
- dashes appear in the display
- press the following digits on the remote (they will appear on the display) : 222222 005255
- press play
Now the player is region free! It is that easy!
notice that the last digit (5) does not fit on the display. This is not a fault, you should type the digit anyway.
