Make your computers DVD player region free
First I shall talk a bit
about DVD history. If you find this boring scroll down to the solution
to make your computers DVD Player region free. A while ago a new
kind of medium was
invented a medium whose prime purpose initially was to carry videos
in superior quality to VHS Videotapes. They called it the Digital
Video Disc Or DVD since people find Acronyms extremely pleasant. This
isn't the latest peace of news in fact it has bean found that the DVD
is also great for storing a bunch of other Digital information not
just Video this meant that the name had to be changed DVD is now the
acronym that stands for Digital Versatile Disc. But the point that I
eventually would like to make is not what the V stands for in DVD but
the fact that DVDs like CDs Scratch easily and one has to be a moron
to come up with such a stupid and fragile storage system. One can not
help but wonder which university one has to go to in order to realise
that a brain without the skull to protect it will not remain
undamaged for very long. The same goes for DVDs and CDs. The guy who
invented the Diskette or Floppy disc knew what I am talking about.
CDs and DVDs should have bean packaged the same way Diskettes were
this way they would never get scratched. This by the way is also not
the point of this article it is just something that I feel strongly
about and it is also something that demonstrates the stupidity of
some of the people we have to share this earth with. I am happy to report that on the up
side The DVD was built and invented to a international standard so
that al systems would be compatible. The DVD is like a a plug and
jack system where you can fit your plugs in to any system without the
need for adapters and transformers. This is great, they finally got
something right and that is exactly why the film industry had to go
out of their way to put other hindrances and obstacles in our way.
They started to encrypt the DVDs with region locks and they
intentionally started building DVD players with region restrictions.
What this means is that you can now only watch certain DVDs with
certain players. If you own a computer you might be slightly luckier
and you get to change your region code five times and then you are
stuck in your last selected region forever.
The Solution Call it what you will. Region free, all region, multi region or international dvd player. Now I would like to inform you of two
Free software programs that will allow you to watch DVDs with any
region code as often as as you like on your Computers DVD player.
DVD43 and DVD Region Killer.
Use the links to download Both Programs. You can instal them both on
your Computer. When you instal both of them only turn one of them on
at a time. If one does not work for a particular DVD “this might
happen occasionally” the other one probably will work. If you are
watching a DVD that is the same region as the setting of your player
you might need to turn them both off.
To turn DVD
region killer on and off right-click the little Globe (DVD region
killer) in the Taskbar and tick or untick Enable DVD region
killer.
Turn the DVD43
on by double-clicking on the Green DVD43 smiley on your
desktop and turn the DVD43 off by right-clicking on the DVD43 smiley
on the Taskbar and selecting Exit.
