1. How to unlock/remove region Code from DVD

2. • With superior picture and audio performance DVD has spurred
growth in home theater exponentially in recent years. Entire rooms
in many homes are now reserved just for the enjoyment of home
theater. However, along with DVD's worldwide success, comes its
dirty little secret: region coding (also referred to as region lock). I
met many internet questions about removing region code from DVD:
• Q1: How can I remove the region code from a copied DVD?
I got a copy of "Tears of the Sun" and its region code 1, I tried using
shrink to remove the code but it doesn’t seem to like the copy, it has
problems loading the film.
Is there another package that I can use to remove the region code?
Q2: Hi, this is a pretty basic question and I feel kind of stupid asking
it since I've been backing up DVDs for a while now. But I have a
DVD that is Region 3 and I would like to back it up but have it be
region-free. How would I go about doing this? Does DVD Decrypter
automatically make it region-free when it rips it to your hard drive? I
plan on using CCE/DVD-RB to get it to fit on a DVD-5 it that matters
at all. Please let me know, thanks!

7. • P.S. DVD Region Code Designations
• The DVD world is divided into six major geographical regions, with
two additional regions reserved for specialized use.
• To keep it simple, this means that DVD players and DVDs are
labeled for operation on within a specific geographical region in the
world. For example, the U.S. is in region 1. This means that all DVD
players sold in the U.S. are made to region 1 specifications. As a
result, region 1 players can only play region 1 discs. That's right, the
DVDs themselves are encoded for a specific region. On the back of
each DVD package, you will a find a region number (1 thru 6).

8. • The geographical regions are as follows:
• REGION 1 -- USA, Canada
REGION 2 -- Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East,
Greenland
REGION 3 -- S.Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Parts of South East
Asia
REGION 4 -- Australia, New Zealand, Latin America (including
Mexico)
REGION 5 -- Eastern Europe, Russia, India, Africa
REGION 6 -- China
REGION 7 -- Reserved for Unspecified Special Use
REGION 8 -- Reserved for Cruise Ships, Airlines, etc...
REGION 0 or REGION ALL -- Discs are uncoded and can be
played Worldwide, however, PAL discs must be played in a
PAL-compatible unit and NTSC discs must be played in an
NTSC-compatible unit.
