Region Code Settings
Most of the DVD titles in today's markets are governed by a regional code
that divides the world into six separate regions. This ensures maximization of
revenues for motion picture studios' theatrical and home releases, which
times and dates vary from region to region.
1. Upon inserting your DVD, note the dialog box.
2. Click “OK” after the region has been set, this dialog box will no longer
prompt you unless an encoded DVD title from another region is
inserted.
Caution: PowerDVD will only allow you to set the regional settings
five times until the regional code is fixed. Subsequently, playback of
DVD titles will be specific to one region. Some DVD titles may not be
region-specific.
