Bad Region error when playing DVDs
Newbie here, so please be kind. I have an A110, external WD 1TB HDD, external DVD/CD Player/Burner. The player plays all sorts of DVDs when connected to my PC (i.e., store bought ones as well as my homemade ones). On my A110, only my homemade DVDs play. The store bought ones result in an error that says "Bad Region". Found nothing on-line regarding this, but hope someone has a suggestion. I'm hoping I don't have to rip them to disk to play. Would much prefer just occasionally playing them directly off the DVD player. Thanks in advance.

Russ

Hi rlombardo

Welcome to the forum Smile

Im afraid so - the PCH do not support css decryption - meaning it cannot play encrypted retail DVD's
Living room: C200/A200/A100 HDMI to Pioneer KURO KRP-500A plasma / Denon AVR 3808 / KEF 5005.2 / B&W DM685
Kids room: C200/A110 HDMI to Panasonic 42PZ85, Optical to Logitech Z5500.

PLEASE READ THE WIKI

RE: Bad Region error when playing DVDs
That's a major bummer. But I guess that's what I have to live with. Thanks a lot for saving me a lot of time researching this further.
