presario182 3 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Really want the new DVD but I only see it in regions 1 & 3. Surely it'll be on region 2 somewhere right? Or is there UK devices that play those regions? (Don't know if this is the right place for this so move it if needed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qri 4,063 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Japanese DVDs are Region 2, so that might help since it might be released there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teru 22,363 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 what poster above said about Japanese dvds, if you can't get a regionless player wait for the Japanese release if there is one. Japan and Europe are the same region if not, get a regionless player and buy the Korean one and go nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sane 16,342 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I'm not sure, but there are region free DVD players on the market. It'll set you back around 50-80USD on Amazon from the looks of things. If you plan on buying lots of international DVDs it might be an investment worth making~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
presario182 3 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 The Japanese version costs so much more than the Korean version, I guess I'll wait and see if I can find it cheaper somewhere. And I just realised it doesn't say anything about English subtitles on the Japanese version :(. Why can't it just be region-free and be so much easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Survivor 467 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 If you install VLC player (it's freeware) on your computer you can probably play the DVD with it as it comes with built in codecs, so you don't need to touch your computer's country region settings. Then just hook your computer to your TV. That's how I watch my Korean concert DVDs that aren't region free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DVD drive on my laptop has rpc2 protection so VLC won't work, the region coding is in the actual drives hardware not software in the OS :(, I guess I'll have to pay the £20~ extra, I just don't know if the Japanese version has English subtitles. Gah! Why's it so hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aardvark 826 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 When I got the D-Live DVDs I just installed software to watch them on my PC. Search 'region code unlock pc' and you'll get some more info. I'm not sure how it works or if it will work for you but it did for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
