Changing the DVD regional code of Philips DVP 5140k

This is my first attempt in creating a video tutorial. This is a video tutorial of changing the region code of a DVD player. This is to remove the regional code limit that prevents the DVD player from playing DVDs from other regions/countries. The DVD player model used is a Philips DVP 5140K and the original code is region 3(southeast asia). Here is the step by step instructions:

1. Turn on the DVD player
2. Open the disc tray/lid
3. Press set up
4. Highlight Preferences(page)
5. Once Preferences is highlighted, press 138931
6. The region code will appear, then press up and select 0.
7. Now the DVD player can play any DVD from any region/country.

Codes vary depending on the DVD player model and brand. For more info or codes, visit: www.videohelp.com

even if you do this does it work on a pal tv

Depends on the refresh rates that the player supports. If the player suppors 50hz then it is compatible with PAL. I'm not sure if 5140k supports PAL or just NTSC, I think it does because the player is autovolt(110v or 240v compatible).

People dont put up with region coded DVD players any more and the manufactures know this. Any player i had that was limited to a certain region was either returned or thrown in the bin, plain and simple.

If you put a different region dvd in your computer, it will automatically switch, but be careful, you can only switch between a few times
