    Sounds like the dvds you have bought are of a different region. I would do a google search with your player name & region code crack. Otherwise you may have to get a multi-region dvd player. My toshiba 330 was only £80. It plays everything I chuck at it.
    Hope this helps,
    Kind regards,

    I think you may have region code problems, I would make a copy with shrink & set the region to region 2.

    OK. I am not sure how to change the code settings with shrink!!!! I use anydvd to overcome region code protection. Scuba pete (or Scuba "Mr shrink" pete) will help, I cannot guarantee if it will work. Depends how fussy your player is. If you keep a look out I am sure scuba will come to your aid. Failing that PM him.
    Sorry for being as much use as a chocolate fireguard!
