be able to obtain cheaper discs from those cheaper regions and has to
purchase from the normal channels so as to safeguard their interest.
DVD X Player allows for the user to set a different region code for 5 times.

the region or discs locked for all regions.
Q: How many types of region code
protection in DVD-ROM hardware itself?
A: The region code protection in DVD-ROM hardware may
be classed into 2 types: A. Phase I (with no region code protection):
The hardware itself will not protect the region and the region code
is protected by the software. In the case of DVD X Player, you may confirm
if you have changed the region code for 5 times. If yes, DVD X Player will
use the last set region code as the final setting and lock the region
code.B. Phase II (with region code protection): Use the set region code
protect on the hardware as the one for watching movies. As this is the
protection by the hardware itself, you should consult DVD-RMO manufacturer
for detail information. DVD X Player will base on the region code set in
the DVD-ROM.
Q: How many times is allowed
for me to change the region code?
A: The region code protection is to comply with the
major 8 movie producers in the world. You will have 5 opportunities
to change the region code (depend on the DVD ROM) and the region code
will be locked after the 5th setting. From then on, you could only play
DVD movies set for the region or locked for all regions.
Q: My computer has already
MPEG1or MPEG2 hardware decoding and compression card. Can I still use
DVD X Player?
A: DVD X Player is a play program for decoding MPEG1 and
MPEG2 using pure software method. DVD X Player may be compatible with hardware
compression card, but cannot be run simultaneously with the hardware
compression card.This means that when you are using DVD X Player, remember
don’t to use hardware compression card at the same time. Because

card or close it.
