Using Country/Region Codes

DVDs sometimes come with country/region
codes imprinted as part of the disc data. These
codes prevent DVD movies from being played
in countries/regions of the world that are
different from where they were sold. You can
play DVDs from other countries/regions only five
times before the country/region code locks and
becomes permanent. Once the code locks, you
can only play DVDs from that country/region.
When the country/region code locks, if you
need help, contact HP Support.

The country/region number is usually placed
over a world globe printed on the DVD
packaging and disc.

DVDs without country/region codes will play on
any player or drive in any country/region.

The six major DVD countries/regions are:

3

Country/Region 1: North America

3

Country/Region 2: Japan, Europe,
Middle East, South Africa

3

Country/Region 3: Southeast Asia

3

Country/Region 4: Australia, New
Zealand, Mexico, Central and South America

3

Country/Region 5: Northwest Asia,
North Africa

3

Country/Region 6: China

WinDVD is not pre-set to a particular
country/region — the country/region code of
the first DVD movie you play determines your
DVD country/region.
